I want to link a Possibility to an Implementation Project
You've now decided to proceed to implement your possibility (idea) to the problem - great!
Let's show you how to link the Possibility you are implementing with actual project which will manage brining the idea to life...
STEP #1
- You can see here that the new implementation project has already been set up. This would follow your normal Jira project set-up process (if you are new to Jira refer here to review Jira's project set up documentation)
- You have to link the Possibility to a type of issue, here we have linked it to issue type of "Epic" (which is the highest level of issue) in the project
- To link this issue ("Epic" or "Story") to your Possibility, in the top right-hand corner, click on the modal icon "..." and select "link"
STEP #2
- Select how you would like to link the Possibility to the Project, suggest using "relates to"
- In the comment section, take a minute to centralise the three issues for this project:
- Problem
- Possibility
- Project Epic / Story (linked to the Possibility)
- This will help for continued context and traceability throughout the implementation of the project
Once you click on "Link" it will look like this:
