    Description

      Problem Definition

      It is not currently possible to create child issues from within the issue view for issue types that are created and configured as additional levels of hierarchy. The default Epic, Story, Task, and Sub-task issue types support this but custom issue types in the hierarchy do not.

      Suggested Solution

      Allow child issue creation from the issue view for custom issue types in the current hierarchy.

      Workaround

      Create the child issues manually and then link them to the desired parent via setting the Parent Link/Parent field or by dragging the issues underneath the desired parent in the plan view and then saving the changes to Jira.
