I am going to have many Jira stories moving forward that have multiple users needed to complete the story but want to insure that they will get recognition for their contributions. I am using sub tasks currently and assigning it to the responsible user.
Also how to insure that my dashboard gadgets reflect this too.
Sub-tasks are the way to go here IMO so you are already on the right track. You can certainly illustrate sub-tasks in dashboard gadgets.

I believe you're doing great by utilizing sub-tasks and assigning them to the responsible users. This is a great way to ensure that everyone is accountable for their own tasks.
Here’s what I’d suggest to take it further:
Use Components or Labels: You could add components or labels to the sub-tasks based on the specific role or contribution. This way, you can filter and visualize their work more easily in reports and dashboards.
Custom Fields: If you need more granularity, consider creating a custom field to track the users contributing to a story. You could create a multi-user picker field to list everyone involved, ensuring that their names are attached to the main story for visibility.
Dashboard Gadgets: For the dashboard gadgets, I recommend using gadgets like the Filter Results or Two Dimensional Filter Statistics. These will allow you to filter by assignee and sub-tasks, so you can easily see who’s doing what.
It’s all about making sure your processes are set up so that no one’s effort slips through the cracks, and it sounds like you’re well on your way.
Hope this helps!
