Structure Benefits

• Flexible Hierarchy

  Issue hierarchy may have any depth (sub-issues, sub-sub-issues and so on), and contain issues from multiple projects and of any issue type.

• The Big Picture

  A structure may include important tasks and milestones from all projects in the company, and provide overview of the progress for the management — in Jira or in an Excel report.

• Time-Saving Templates

  Whether it's a new employee checklist or a test plan, you can save time and effort by cloning a pre-populated template structure instead of creating all the issues by hand.

• Keep Work Organized

  When issues are collected into meaningful structures, you can quickly browse them and see the context of each issue.

• Total Progress and Time

  Track total time spent, total estimation or overall progress — Structure aggregates this information upwards through the hierarchy.

• Visualize Relationships

  Get a single view of existing hierarchical relationships, represented as issue links, sub-tasks, or Agile Epic-Story links.

• Extend and Integrate

  Structure has a well-documented API, allowing integration with your existing infrastructure through additional custom-made Jira add-ons. The Structure extension, Structure.Gantt, is an excellent example of what can be achieved with the API.
