### Background and current implementation - Issues are scoped at the project level. - Labels are scoped at the project level _and_ group level. - Milestones are scoped at the project level _and_ group level. - Currently, despite having subgrouping functionality, we do not support visibility of issues being rolled up beyond their immediate parent group. | | Current | Proposed | | --- | --- | --- | | Assign label to issue/mr (issue/mr page, board sidebar) | Assign project label, immediate parent group label | Expand to all ancestor group labels https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-ce/issues/40915 | | Assign milestone to issue/mr (issue/mr page, board sidebar) | Assign project milestone, immediate parent group milestone | Expand to all ancestor group milestones https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-ce/issues/36862 | | Group list views of issues/mrs | View objects of current group's immediate children projects | Expand to objects of all projects of all descendent groups https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-ce/issues/30106, https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-ce/issues/39388, https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-ce/issues/42443| | Group board view of issues | View issues of current group's immediate children projects | Expand to issues of all projects of all descendent groups https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-ee/issues/3342 | | Group list filtering, group board filtering, group board saved config, group board lists of issues/mrs by labels/milestones | Filter by labels/milestones of current group and immediate children projects | Expand to labels/milestones of all ancestor/descendent groups https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-ce/issues/40915, https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-ce/issues/44723, https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-ce/issues/36862 |
