When moving an Epic to a different Initiative, maintain the link in JIRA

    • We collect Jira feedback from various sources, and we evaluate what we've collected when planning our product roadmap. To understand how this piece of feedback will be reviewed, see our Implementation of New Features Policy.

      NOTE: This suggestion is for JIRA Portfolio Server. Using JIRA Portfolio Cloud? See the corresponding suggestion.

      In Portfolio, when a user:

      Creates an Epic X inside an Initiative Y

      , then

      Adds them to Agile via the "Create and link new issues" command (in the Initiative dropdown)

      Portfolio instructs Agile to create is a 'X blocks Y' link.

      Now, in Portfolio, after some planning session where X is deemed more appropriate under a different Initiative Z, the user:

      Moves Epic X to Initiative Z

      Now, Portfolio does not instruct Agile to set any links.
      Ideally, it trashes the 'X blocks Y' link and add an 'X blocks Z' link OR updates 'X blocks Y' to 'X blocks Z'.

      Otherwise, we have a false positive:

      X blocks Y is wrong

      AND a false negative:

      X should block Z, but it doesn't

      This dependency is extremely important for all teammates that live in Agile and not Portfolio. It also adversely affects Agile-based plugins that leverage links (there are many).

      Manual management of this is excessively time-consuming after each long-term planning round, because long-term planning is (meant to be) done in Portfolio.
