Different screen for entering Epics

Parrish Fessler October 11, 2024

Hello!

I'm trying to figure out how to create a new Screen or Screen Scheme so that when a user hits Create and then selects the Type as Epic (out of Initiative/Epic/Story options) that the screen fields and options are different from when one would select Story. I have researched and tried several methods but so far a separate Screen and Scheme doesn't come up. I just get the default Screen for entering new items. Can someone help or point me to another post or doc that outlines how I can accomplish this? I feel like I've done it but it just won't work and I'm pulling out what little hair I have left. :)

Thank you in advance!

Hi @Parrish Fessler , a few questions 

  • are you on a Company Managed Project (lower left corner illustrates)?
  • did you associate the new screen to the Epic issue type?
  • did you follow Atlassian documentation?
  • can you share an image of project settings > issues > screens?

I am on a Company Managed Project.

I'm not sure if I have successfully associated the screen to the Epic issue type. When I go to Screens, I can see my "Epic Issue Screen" in the list and it is associated my Screen Scheme "Epic Screen Scheme". If I go to Issue Types however, the Epic type is not related to the scheme under "Related Schemes". 

When I got to Issue Type Schemes, I have a scheme named "Epic Issue Type Scheme" with Options of "Epic". I click on the "..." options to Associate to my project, but when I do I get the error message "There are 2223 sub-tasks that will be affected by this change. You must have at least one valid sub-task issue type."
