E.g. if the specified requirement is an Epic with multiple stories, all the stories don’t need to be specified separately if this option is checked. If not selected, only the parent issues are displayed in the report.
Filter Child issues: Clicking the icon will allow users to specify which issue types to include in the report (e.g., the user might only want to see stories, not task/sub-tasks, so in the dropdown user can select Story).
Include all Case Versions: Ticking this checkbox will include data from all the case versions linked to the requirements.
Exclude Archived Cases: Selecting this checkbox will exclude the archived cases from the generated report.
Cycles: Specify which the project and execution cycles that should be considered for traceability of the selected requirements; multiple cycles can be specifiedselected from multiple projects. If all or any of the checkboxes under Cycles are selected, the cycles list will need to be provided.
