Group by idea (from JPD?) in Plans

[joachim ramberg]

Hi,

I came across the image below and found it interesting. I'm missing the ability to group by Idea (or something above Epic) in Plans. I only have the options Epic, Project, Team and Sprint. Not even my custom type Initiative that's on top of Epic's in my hierarchy is displayed. I tried to include a JPD project to see if "idea" would be added as an option, but no success.

Does anyone know something about this?

Hi, this is where we talk about this: https://community.atlassian.com/t5/Jira-Product-Discovery-articles/Early-Access-Program-new-integration-with-Jira-Plans-ex-Advanced/ba-p/2743110

the integration is still in early access but not for long - we'll turn it on for everyone soon.

Thank you for responding @Tanguy Crusson looking forward to seeing this in the product soon!

@Tanguy Crusson are you able to help here? I'm reading your JPD handbook and came across the same setup as mentioned by @joachim ramberg, but also not able to reproduce this in Plans. Can you please help guide us here on how to group Epics by idea? How to add the Idea field to Jira and Plans? Thanks!

Hi @joachim ramberg  

JPD projects can't be included in the plans feature of Jira

JPD helps with Discovery of problems for instance whereas Advanced roadmap as a feature of Jira Software focuses on the Delivery side of projects.

They can indeed be included. But the main question is not what JPD or Plans should be used for, it's where the "group by idea" options comes from. I've tried to include JPD projects, custom ticket types and looked through all options but the group by idea option can't be seen.

Hi @joachim ramberg 

I checked, and indeed, i can a JPD projects in a plan as well. 

And setting dependencies on JPD issues to JSW project issues and looking at the dependency map, I don't get the option "group by idea"

Might it be a CF or a Label.

I can't seem to reproduce it on my side.
