Issue Summary
When creating work items and using the create screen and we have the box option “Create another” ticked, in the new create screen, the Linked work items → (for example)Child Of field is visually retained on the next create screen but does not actually create a link on the newly created work item. This gives a false impression that the new work item will be linked to the same parent.
Steps to Reproduce
- Go to a project where Linked work items with Child Of is available on the create screen.
- Click Create work item.
- Fill in the required fields (e.g. Summary).
- In Linked work items, set Child Of and select a valid parent work item (e.g. PROJECT-7).
- Tick the Create another checkbox.
- Click Create.
-
-
- Update the Summary to a different value.
-
- Confirm that Linked work items → Child Of still shows the same parent (e.g. PROJECT-7).
-
- The first work item is created.
- When the new Create work item screen appears
- Click Create again.
- Open both created work items and check their Linked work items section.
Expected Results
For both created work items:
The Linked work items → Child Of link to the selected parent (e.g. PROJECT-7) is created and visible on the issue view.
Actual Results
- The first work item has the correct Linked work items → Child Of link to the selected parent.
- On the second work item:
-
- The create dialog visually shows the same Child Of value (same parent) when using Create another.
-
- After creation, the Linked work items section on the issue view is empty (no Child Of link is created).
Workaround
The only workaround is to manually link the work items.
