Issue hierarchy is available for all issues of projects added to the SAFe® hierarchy via ‘My organization’
Is either already available in the issue’s detail view or can be added by clicking the ‘SAFe® Hierarchy’ button in the issue toolbar
The issue hierarchy link unveils how an issue in a project on one of the upper SAFe® hierarchy layers is being broken down into smaller tasks. It always displays the current issue’s hierarchical links (parent issue + children) if available.
It links issues hierarchically, that are located on adjacent layers (SAFe® layers cannot currently be skipped).
Every issue can have exactly 1 parent issue in the issue’s project parent project from the SAFe® hierarchy linked to it (except issues in projects on the Portfolio level)
I cannot really describe it any better - do you understand what I want to say here? 😅
Every issue can have any number of child issues in any of the issue’s project child projects from the SAFe® hierarchy linked to it (except issues in projects on the Team level)
