Duplicate entries when grouping by Components in Timeline

rstrutt June 14, 2024

Hi,

I have a Top Level Planning project that I'm using to sit above several other projects to bring together an overall timeline that I'm using the Timeline view to manage/visualize.

I'm using JIRA Components to categorize the Initiatives in that project, and then grouping by those Components to logically separate my Timeline view.

The issue that I'm having is that if I include the Epics/Stories/Tasks/Subtasks in the Timeline, I get a separate version of each Initiative in a group called All Other Issues containing the expandable hierarchy.  Presumably because the Epics/Stories/Tasks/Subtasks don't (and can't) share the Component used by the Initiative and defined by the Top Level Planning project.

Here's a concrete example;

  • The TOC-17 Initiative appears once under the "EX...  " Component that it's been grouped by
  • But it Also appears under "All Other issues" group, along with the hierarchy of Epic->Story from the separate RP project

The behaviour that I was hoping for is that the Initiative is grouped, once, by the Component, and that group is expandable to see the hierarchy.

As it stands, you can't drill into a grouped Initiative to understand the underlying structure without going to find the second copy of it it in the "All other Issues" group.

Hope that's clear!  I appreciate any help or advice.

Thanks.

I reported this to support.  There isn't really a workaround at the moment. They've created this feature request to track it;

Hey @Nicolas Grossi , thanks.  No, I've not raised a support ticket yet, was wondering if I was doing something stupid!
