How to visualize bundles of Epics? Jira app integrations?

[Bjarke Kragh]

Hi 

We have a development team that is using Jira.  We have multiple customers projects - The projects are then being divided into multiple epics. So a customer project can have for instance 3 epics. 

Our issue is that we have many on-going customer projects which means that our Jira roadmap consist of many epics across multiple customers. However it can be difficult to have the overview of each customer on Jira roadmap. Is there a jira app integration which can bundle epics together into a customer project so that it would be easier to have the overview of all on-going customers?

Any ideas how to solve this issue for better overview?

Thank you for your input in advance

I use Jira Advanced Roadmaps for this purpose. I have updated my hierarchy to create an "initiative" level. I create an initiative and then link the child epics to the initiative and I can view bundled epics in this way. It works fantastically.

Hi Elizabeth

Thank you for your responce. Interesting with the initiative unfortunately we are on the standard plan which do not support the advanced roadmap :( 

Thank you

Hi @Bjarke Kragh 

You may want to try out our plugin, Agile Tools : Epic Tree & Time in Status 

It provides 3 major functionalities in one add-on

• Link Hierarchy (upto 10 levels ) of Hierarchy and their rolled up sum for time estimates and Story Points
• Epic Sum up (standard Jira 3 level hierarchy)
• Time in Status Reports
  • Time in Status
  • Time with Assignee
  • Time in Status with Assignee
  • Time with Assignee per Status
  • Status/Assignee Count
  • Multiple Transition Reports

Hi @Bjarke 

One way to do this as mentioned above is to create an extra level of hierarchy above Epics using Advanced Roadmaps.

Another way is to group Epics together by filter using Agile Docs, a plugin we created.

To see all the Epics across all your projects, create a JQL filter for those Epics. You can then bring up that filter in Agile Docs and see all your Epics and their complete issue hierarchy on a single page.

We're also working on the ability to create an extra level hierarchy above Epics like Advanced Roadmaps but that feature is still in development.

Hope that helps!
