Tissue Reports in projects

The Tissue Reports allows users to see clearly the relationship of the project issues by displaying them side by side within the same table.

It uses the set of primary issues (e.g. Parent Issue) to join them with the linked issues (e.g. Sub-tasks)

You can use the Tissue Reports to

group the child issues by their parent issues
track the status of the parent issues alongside with their child issues
export the report out for further data processing or aggregation
