Create a subtask of type Bug

anuj__sharma September 3, 2017

I want to have Bug as subtask for all issues

My analysis :

We can create a new subtask type : 'Bug-Subtask'
Because only available subtask types are : 'Action' and 'Subtask'


Is there any other way to create subtask of type 'bug'. Pls suggest

No, there is no "other way".  Do it the proper way - add "bug" as a sub-task type, then add the issue type into your project's "issue type scheme" (you need to be an admin to do those two steps)

I'm not sure I understand what you are looking for here, but there's no "new feature" I can see. 

JIRA has supported sub-task issues since version 2, back in the early 2000's  (possibly version 1, but I have very little experience with Jira 1, so don't know)

I have also been trying to add "bug" as a sub-task type so that I can create bugs from my issue, but am getting the error below when I try to do so. Any thoughts?

You will have to rename the existing Bug issue type to something else if you want to create Bug as another type.
