Creating cross-project release
Asked by Naman Naik:

Hello All,

I am trying to create a cross-project release in Advanced Roadmap. As per one of the articles I read, once you create a cross-project release then after linking to projects it should be visible in individual projects. But I am not seeing such happening. Instead, as soon as I create a cross-project release it ask me to group releases from linked projects and nothing else. I saw few video on installing ADD-ONs but I want to know if there is something I am missing to achieve the result within JIRA itself?

Thank you.

Overview of capacity of shared teams over different plans.
Asked by jeroen_wilmes:

We have a team that works for different JIRA Development projects.

Is it possible to do capacity planning for this team in advanced roadmaps, if so How?


Answers:
author: Curt Holley
body: Hi [@jeroen_wilmes](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/4606019)

You need to make use of the shared teams concept in Advanced Roadmaps/Jira premium.

Once set-up, you can see all their work as one Team grouping

Group by teams UI isn't compact
Asked by Geden Parmenter:

In my plan view I have created this plan using a filter which is the same filter I do my sprint planning from. I have created a view where I grouped by teams, we have iOS development team and Android development team only. When I look at the view the gap between the two teams is excessively large without anything being expanded yet.

I want to know I can make it more compact similar to if I were to group by sprints instead.

How can I activate or install advanced roadmap
Asked by Rajesh Lakka:

Hello  

My Use Case - I want a roadmap split under the same EPIC.   
1 . Product Activities (Project Initiation, Discovery, Market Research, JIRAs etc) and  
2. Development efforts  

Is this possible with an advanced Roadmap?  

I believe I have admin access to JIRA Software. How can I activate or install advanced roadmaps? Does it require an additional subscription?  

Also, would that give me access to additional filters.   

<br />


Answers:
author: Joseph Chung Yin
body: [@Rajesh Lakka](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/5030490) -

Welcome to the community. To answer your question on how to activate or install AR for Jira, please let me know what env are you using - CLOUD or Server (Data Center)?

If it is CLOUD, this component comes out of the box if your CLOUD Jira Software subscription is Premium level or above. On the server side, if your Jira Software version is 8.5 or above.

In regards to your 2nd question - roadmap split under the same EPIC. There are many way where to can tag your child issues (ones that rolls up to the EPIC) and you can expose those fields in the plan to setup different views in the plan - Example: tagging your child issues with different component/s.

Hope this helps.

Why did you change the team capacity configurations on Advance Roadmap?
Asked by Wesley Payne:

In Jira Server we can set the hours per individual in the team per week in Advance Roadmap but on Jira cloud we can only set the capacity for weekly hours? Why is that?

This is a major change that has us rethinking migrating to Jira cloud.

Can you explain the thinking for this change and also what the work around would be?


Answers:
author: Walter Buggenhout
body: Hi [@Wesley Payne](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/3995645)

This change in capacity management was announced quite some time ago (in early 2021). While planning capacity at the individual level allows for great detail and accuracy, it also entails a lot of planning overhead. The individual planning features were part of *Live Plans*, which are also being discontinued on the server/data center version of Advanced Roadmaps.

You can read more background information in [this announcement post](https://community.atlassian.com/t5/Advanced-Roadmaps-articles/Ending-support-for-the-Advanced-Roadmaps-Live-plans-Legacy/ba-p/1963824) from the AR team.

Hope this clarifies!

Show 2 dates on the gantt chart
Asked by Hari Krishna D:

Is there a way I could defined a desired due date and the actual due date and show both these on the advanced roadmap view in the right side gantt chart ?


Answers:
author: Curt Holley
body: HI [@Hari Krishna D](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/3879226)

Not exactly.

Yu could have both those date fields as the plans designated date fields, presumably desired is always before actual? (though the other way around would be the better problem to have)  
Then put desired in as the start date and Actual as the end date. that would show the deltas on the gantt view.  

Otherwise, using one of them as the designated End date (of the plan) and have the other one showing as a field/column in the view is all you can do within one Plan.

It isn't a bad idea, if I were you, I'd push the "Give feedback" button (top right) and suggest it as a possible feature for the future.

Create new Live Plans in Jira 8.20 LTS
Asked by Matthias Kannenberg:

We recently upgraded from Jira 8.13 LTS to 8.20 LTS (Datacenter) and I seem to not be able to create new Advanced Roadmap Live Plans.

Before the upgrade I would simply create a new plan and revert to the old live plan interface but that option seems to be missing now and Avanced Roadmaps was migrated from an installed plugin to a system component, so I can not downgrade to an older version.

Is there still a way to create new live plans (even through some hack or API) in Jira 8.20 Datacenter?

We are aware that live plans are depricated and will not exist in Jira 9 but our existing Live Plans are still working fine and the the new "improved" interface is still pretty unusable and lacks basic features (like per-person capacity planing, default size for issues, value role-downs..).


Answers:
author: Matthias Kannenberg
body: I found the necessary REST API to convert the new plan type to an old live plans even with 8.20.

But this method should be concidered a hack and is neither supported nor intended by the developer, so procede with caution and at your own risk and do extensive testing in a non-productive environment.

All that is needed is a POST request against the following endpoint

https://\<your-jira-instance-host\>/jira/rest/jpo/1.0/plans/\<id\>/update

using this request body:  
{"portfolioPlanVersion":{"value":0}}  
and using your personal access token as bearer token for authentication.  
Replace your instance host accordingly and for \<id\> use the ID of the plan you want to convert. The plan's ID can be found as id parameter in the URL when you open your plan (not the sid or vid). It can be verified by using a GET on https://\<your-jira-instance-host\>/jira/rest/jpo-api/1.0/plan/\<id\>.

Here is your actual answer.


author: Dave Mathijs
body: Hi [@Matthias Kannenberg](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/609767) Live Plans are no longer supported, they were part of **Portfolio for Jira 2.x**. So there is no way to create new Live Plans.

comments: author: Matthias Kannenberg
body: Jira Live Plans are still supported in 8.20 and only go away fully in 9, but it seems the button to create (or rather, revert to the old liveplan ui) new live plans was removed between 8.13 and 8.20 to nudge people to use the new ones.

But Live Plans work fine in 8.20 and we have quite a few in use.

Since I can't use the new ones (because of missing features), I was looking for a way to use a Jira feature that is still officially supported and was wondering if there are any workarounds or APIs that could be used.

Can you allocate a Team to a Sub-Task?
Asked by Sankin_ Daniel:

Hiya,

I am trying to assign a team to a sub-task but it's a greyed out button sadly (right side of the screenshot).

Is there even a possibility to assign a team to a sub-task? ![Unbenannt.png](/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/227421i0337E95E7FCB628A/image-size/large?v=v2&px=999 "Unbenannt.png")

Thanks in advance!


Answers:
author: Hamza Chundrigar
body: Hello [@Sankin_ Daniel](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/5087027) and welcome to the community!

To my understanding, you cannot edit the teams field of subtasks in ARJ.

This is supported by the idea that subtasks are not independent issues, rather they are parts of a large unit of work. So for example, if a parent issue belongs to Team A, then part of that issue (i.e. subtasks) also belongs to Team A naturally. You can't assign Team B to the subtask as it would logically contradict the integrity of ownership on the task level.

Best regards,

Hamza

Can jira card start and end include a time and not just a date?
Asked by Jake S:

I am looking at running a deployment that will take place over the course of a day. In order to use Jira for this I need the start and end of cards to have a time and I would also need the road map scale to be time and not date. Would both of these requirements be possible?


Answers:
author: Ste Wright
body: Hi [@Jake S](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/5086684)

You can certainly add Date/Time fields to an Issue.

You'd need to create two Custom Fields - eg. Start Date/Time, and End Date/Time, using the appropriate custom field type.

**However,**an Advanced Roadmap plan does not scale to be time-based - it operates based on Date Picker fields only. You'd need some other method of visualising a time-based plan.

Hierarchy advanced roadmaps
Asked by Mario Amaya:

Hey Guys im facing a mistake here.

Im trying to group the issues by this

Initiative

Epics

Stories

Tasks

But i'm trying to group the tasks under the Stories and it doesn't allow me in the advanced roadmaps. Do you know why?

I mean they are separate.![tasks.PNG](https://community.atlassian.com/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/227005i4D66F8C3C199168C/image-size/large?v=v2&px=999 "tasks.PNG")


Answers:
author: Curt Holley
body: Hi [@Mario Amaya](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/5082012)   

You can't have multiple levels of "standard" issue types in your hierarchy. All standard issue types (which includes both Stories and Tasks) are going to reside at the standard level. Similarly, all issue types that exist in your instance that are of the Sub-task level, will be in the sub-task level of your Hierarchy.

author: Nic Brough -Adaptavist-
body: Welcome to the Atlassian Community!

Generally, Advanced Roadmaps ignores items at the sub-task level.

As they are a fragment of their parent story, and not really an item in their own right, all a planner needs to know about them is actually already on the story that they are a part of. A sub-task does not have a version, planned date, or even (useful at a roadmap level) status outside that of its parent.

Can you share more about your requirements?

author: Nic Brough -Adaptavist-
body: Welcome to the Atlassian Community!

Advanced Roadmaps is software intended for reporting and planning large scale pieces of work which will be executed by many teams, almost certainly within many more than one project. The planing is done by creating many "work items" which you would write up as stories, issues, or whatever else you want to call them, but would be handled by some form of issue tracker.

Jira is an issue tracker. Confluence is a wiki. Confluence doesn't have issues or work items to plan, it's a documentation, authoring or even just content-management system.

So there is no Advanced Roadmaps for Confluence - there's nothing for it to do on Confluence!

Could you explain why you were looking for this?

Split Issues and Show phases
Asked by Efra?n Valencia:

Hi there!

I am VERY new to Advanced roadmaps, and I have been reading documentation and everything, due to the way projects are administered here, I need as part of the roadmap to be able to display the different phases an issue undertakes (something like Define Requirements, Developing, Testing, UAT, Release)

Is it possible to display this information within the GANTT chart? Also, due to the particularities of the organization, is often common for these phases to have gaps in between, so a solid bar is not really the best way to display them, is there a way to split it?

Thanks!

author: Mike Vitale
body: If you have an issue hierarchy in Jira which goes from Initiative \> Epic \> Task / Story \> Sub-task, you can set the view of your Advanced Roadmaps to display accordingly by clicking Filters, then set the Hierarchy from Initiative to Sub-task.

Then it's just a matter of making sure the board / filter / project which your Plan is sourcing issues from has the full issue scheme of Initiative to Sub-Task.

In that scenario, I would then treat the Initiative as the project itself, pointing Epics to it via the parent link field, and utilizing Epics as placeholders for your phases. Then each Epic / Phase can have its own set of tasks and sub-tasks based on the Epic link you apply at the task level, and the child issues you create under tasks for sub-tasks.

How to sort all card in work space by dates in check lists?
Asked by Lyaila Uzakova:

I use trello standard plan. I need to sort all cards in one work space \& to see due dates in check lists. Is it possible? Now I can only see due dates in cards.  
My team member has this function in Ipad. I can't find it in a windows version.


Answers:
author: Theodoro Reato
body: Hi Lyaila,

Welcome to the community,

You can sort the cards per board not per Workspace, so you could add an [Automation](https://support.atlassian.com/trello/docs/butler-overview/) to sort the cards in all of your boards. However, you can sort the cards per due date on the cards, not on Checklists. The due dates on checklists aren't shown in front of the card and can't be sorted by.

You can only see Checklists due dates on the [Calendar View](https://support.atlassian.com/trello/docs/calendar-view/) on the board. Workspace Calendar View doesn't show checklists due dates.

I hope this helps, have a great day.
