I want to see issues on kanban board based on parent status

[Stig Espenhein]

Hi 

I have a company-based project and I would to see all the stories in the project based on their parent's (epics) status. The result should appear on a kanban board ideally with a quick filter that could filter epics not in progress. 

As a first step I've tried to make a query in the issue navigator:

project = rep and parentstatus = "in progress" 

This gives me a list of stories with their belonging epics. However, the status of the epics doesn't match the parentstatus specified in the query (neither in the epic status field nor in the epic workflow status field). Where exactly is parentstatus derived from on each epic?  

I've also tried with project = rep and Epic Status = "in progress" which only gives me a list of epics without the underlying stories. 

I know that epics are defined as features in our issue hierarchy. Could it perhaps have something to do with this? 

Thanks in advance 

Best, 

Stig

Do you mean that you want to make issues move through the workflow if they meet some timing criteria (like "in status of "open" and have not been updated for 4 days")?

The standard answer here is to use Jelly Escalation type scripts to do that. See https://confluence.atlassian.com/display/JIRA/Jelly+Escalation

If I have misunderstood the requirement though, could you explain it differently?

yes, but I don't want to close the issue , only wanted to move or escalate it to next workflow level.

Let say open-> Level1-> level2

So if it is on Level-1, I wanted to move it to level-2 after some time if it is not moved manually

The escalation stuff pushes issues through the workflow. It just happens that Atlassian need it to do "close". You need it to do a different transition, so change it to suit your transitions rather than Atlassians.
