How to dynamically fill in the Sub Component custom field to be a dynamic select list of values dependent on value of component?

EXAMPLE

Component: values are Comp X, Comp Y, Comp Z

Now for Comp X

Sub Component values are A, B, C

Now for Comp Y

Sub Component values are N, O, P

Now for Comp Z

Sub Component values are Q, R, S

So when the user selects Comp X as the component I want the Sub Component field to have a select list containing values A B C

How can this be achieved?

Cheers,

Sebastien

Jira supports only one level of component. If you need to have this sub-levels you can use a custom field (Multi Level Select) and give the components in that. But remember, you will lose some standard functionality offered by Jira if you use a custom field. For Jira it is just another field.
