      When sub-task is created, it doesn't inherit the Epic link from the parent. This creates some issues, like:

      • If a board is configured to use Epics swimlanes and you have visible on this board an Epic, and under this Epic a story and a sub-task under this story, if by some reason the story is not visible on the board (due to filter conditions or status mapping configuration), the sub-task is displayed under the "Issues without Epics" instead of being displayed under the Epic linked to its parent
      • This also causes time reporting to create orphaned hours for sub-tasks which have no epic.

      Defining sub-tasks to inherit their parents' Epic link would resolve both problems

            Hi, this literally breaks the board if using filters. This is critical and should be a priority. Causing a lot of anger within my team.
