Filter Pulling Out Epic Link Does not Show Sub-tasks

[JD Lobue]

I am trying to use a board that filters out an epic from another board in the JSW. When I do this by epicLink != XXX, the sub-tasks that are not in that epic are also not being made visible.

Here is my filter:  project = X AND ("Epic Link" != EpicInJSW OR "Epic Link" is EMPTY)

Any thoughts on how to create a board w/ a filter that shows all work except that which is under one epic?

Thanks

Hi @JD Lobue 

I would split Sub-tasks from the filter for Standard Issue Types - so filter would be...

project = ABC AND (issuetype = Sub-task OR ("Epic Link" != ABC-123 OR "Epic Link" is EMPTY))
