Sub-Tickets & Parent Tickets

Any ticket can become a sub-ticket of another ticket, making the other one the parent ticket. A sub-ticket can use a different form than its parent and can be located on a different layer within the same project. A parent ticket can not be a sub-ticket at the same time.

Sub-tickets are listed at the bottom of a ticket.
