How can I add Subtask to a task

[Marcel]

I have an backlog-task, where I want to couple some subtask to.
In the manual it says: click the more (which is the [...] I think).

But there is no such option :-(

Sub-Tasks also have to be enabled and configured in the global configuration of your JIRA instance.

@Marcel,

 follow below steps,

1. Click Issue ID (TST-4633 as of below screenshot) so that ypu will navigate to the task
2. click more button
3. click 'Create sub task'

hope this helps :)

Hi Marcel,

additionally to what Alana and Andreas already wrote, any kind of sub-task issue type has to be available/configured for your project as well. :)

Best, Max

open a new project, choose agilty (or something like that), then add a task,

open that task, click more and see: no subtask

Okay, so you're on Cloud and are using the Agility template. Of course that is lacking any configuration possibilities and uses just plain cards/issues as a representation of a task. Thanks for clarifying.

as it turned out, I had the agile setup, and not the scrum setup. And in that setup, there was no way to have a subtask. Thanks for trying to help me out.

Hey Marcel,

not sure what you mean by "agile setup" and why it would prevent you from having sub-task issue types. Could you explain?
