@JasperCraeghs "Depends" is only added to the task in jira_export.tjp when the 'Dependency' or 'Dependent' relationship is used. If "is blocked by" or any other dependency is used, the "Depends" is not created.

JIRA allows linking parent tasks to sub-tasks. Also Task-juggler supports this.

Jira Juggler currently does not support it: all tasks are in a flat list.

A task with status "Open" does not have a start or end attribute set. So, if this task depends on another task, TaskJuggler doesn't know any better than to let this task start right after the dependencies have been resolved. Those dependencies could already be in the "Resolved" state, causing TaskJuggler to let this task start in the past, even when its status is "Open".

Solution: add the start attribute to an "Open" task (with a dependency) with the current date and time as value.

FYI @Ben2022

I have a closed change request in my backlog and Jira-juggler returns the error:

File "/home/bco/.local/lib/python3.9/site-packages/mlx/jira_juggler.py", line 629, in compare_status
if a.resolved_at_date < b.resolved_at_date:
TypeError: '<' not supported between instances of 'NoneType' and 'datetime.datetime'

Can you have a look at it, please? If you need extra input, do not hesitate to ask. Thanks!
