Move the main issue to Done column and not the sub tasks

C Anuradha July 31, 2023

A user story has 4 sub tasks. The sub tasks are moved to Done column. I want to see the main issue in the Done column.

Hi @C Anuradha  - Welcome to the Atlassian Community!

You can create an automation rule that will transition the parent to Done when all of the sub-tasks are done. See this example of how to do that.

Hi John,

Currently i have all the 4 sub tasks as "Closed" status. The PArent issue is also "Closed" status. But i see the sub tasks in the Done Column...but not the Parent task.

Is the parent shown on the board and just in a different column? Or you don't see it on the board at all?

Also, what type of project is this? Team-managed? Company-managed?

Team Managed. Can I add a screen shot here?

It shows the US as the heading row, with the 4 sub tasks below in each of the "To Do", "In Progress" and "Done" column. I want the main task to also come below the Done column...not as a header row kind

Ah, thanks for the update. Unfortunately, boards for Team-managed projects are very limited and you are not able to update how the issues are displayed. You could create a second Jira Software board and link it to your Team-managed project to be able to do that if you like. Here is an article that will walk you through how to create a second board if you are interested.

Hi @C Anuradha ,

Welcome to Atlassian Community.

This can be achieved through configuring the board. Modify the Board filter to exclude the Sub-Task which will only showcase the user stories in the column.

let me know if you have any questions.

Thanks,

Tejaswini

Hi @Teja 

I want to see the Issue and the Sub task in the Done column. Both.
