JIRA: two issues with epic status
I notice two minor issues with the Epic workflow we have defined, concerning the status “in use”.
Workflow: Attached
1)
When an epic is set to the final status “in use”, by progressing the status on the epic itself, it remains visible in the Epic Bar on a team board.
Workaround 1: set the status to “done” from the epic bar menu, then to “in use” on the epic itself.
Workaround 2: team boards currently filter out epics in “in use” status.. would prefer to stop doing this and fix the issue.
2)
When reviewing a fix/version, epics in status “done” prevent releasing a fix/version, although they are not visible in the fix/version overview of objects in progress or to do status:
Workaround: when attempting to release a fix/version, a pop-up names epics still in “done” status to close.
I would expect epics in “done” status to be shown in the fix/version overview bucket for “issues in progress”:
This is the Epic workflow:
