Why are my Tasks with sub tasks not in columns on my board?

Jamie Legg February 9, 2022

I have created a company scrum project. When I start my sprint, go to active sprint, none of my stories or Tasks WITH SUB TASKS are in the columns - such as To Do, In Progress etc. The Stories and Task headlines run across the whole board, with the SUB TASKS on the board.... (view the top image below)

I want to have the Stories and Tasks in the relevant columns, with a little indicator informing that there are some sub-tasks assigned to them. (Similar to Team-based boards - View bottom image below)

Can someone explain where I am going wrong. This started from me creating a 'Risk' sub-task, but realised it does this with any sub-task. I am used to Team-based boards but know the Company ones have more usability.

you can already see subtasks on the board together with the task that it belongs to.

see: https://community.atlassian.com/t5/Jira-questions/Why-are-issues-with-subtasks-placed-above-the-normal-columns/qaq-p/1254812#U2463784

i was able to change swimlanes to be based on assignees. now i can see subtasks as well as the tasks associated to them on the same card.

Check your board settings to see if the filter is including the sub-tasks as well

Hi @Jamie Legg -- Welcome to the Atlassian Community!

Yes, and...to what Anita suggests:

That sub-task indicator on the Team-Managed Projects boards/cards is not a feature of the Company-Managed ones.  There is an open suggestion to add the subtask count to software project, board cards: https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/JRACLOUD-77346

Kind regards,
Bill
