Ways to "package / group" several epics/stories/tasks across multiple projects

[Johan Ekman]

Hi All, 

The case: 
Let's say that I have 3 Projects they have multiple different epics, stories and tasks.
I manage the overview in the Advanced Roadmap feature (plans) 
However, many times there may be "relations" between a story in one projects and stories in the other projects. 

So now I want to make a type of way to "tag" these stories in the different projects to "group" them across the projects / "packages" in the advanced roadmap. 

E.g. I have an Iphone desing project and a website design project in jira. 
and now both have stories that is about creating a better login experience (like an initiative) 

So we want to tag all stories relating to "login experience" in all projects and see them in the advanced roadmap grouped together how this "package / delivery" is doing.

Can this be done somehow via tags or something else ?

There are a few ways to do it, labels "can" work, but you're likely looking to make an issuetype that is allowed to contain multiple epics.  That's done through issue hierarchy (that's a premium feature on cloud).

You can find that in the Cog (settings) -> Product -> Issue Type Hierarchy  (assuming you have premium cloud jira)

*note -  you cannot "skip" levels, so you can't directly add a bug to an issuetype above Epic.  Levels are strictly enforced.
