How to hide related completed tasks?

Question

Good day!

We decided to work by sprints and there are only some types of tasks are suitable for that planning, and subtasks are not approaching for that now. The latter had a very convenient function: hide completed subtasks. Is there anything similar for completed related tasks? Or how else can this issue be resolved?

p.s. we need that to avoid a large number of tasks within a single user story, and to understand how much we have to do.

I meant would like to hide completed related tasks (not subtasks) in user stories and epics, for example. I hope the screen will bring clarity.

I’m not exactly clear what your goal is but let me see if I can get close here. One thing you mention is “related completed sub-tasks” and I’m not sure what defines “related here. Could you clarify?

if by “related” you simply are referring to the nature of how sub-tasks allow you to break a task into smaller tasks and hence they are related, then if you wish to hid the Done sub-tasks from the board the you could add the following JQL snippet to your board’s filter - AND NOT (Issuetype = Sub-task and status = Done).

now if you define related to be something more unique then you likely would need to add labels to related items and work that into your ‘exclusion’ JQL snippet.
