Subprojects
Subprojects allows you to create hierarchy of JIRA projects. Once you have created project hierarchy you can use new project picker tree to select a project on new issue dialog, you may use project in subprojectsOf() JQL to query issues or use subprojects dashboard item to add high-level view of project hierarchy into any dashaboard
How you will group your projects is completely depend on your organizations. Here some different grouping alternatives:
- You may create a group for different project categories, for example "Service Desk Projects", "Business Projects", or "Software Projects"
