issue-tracking

I have been using Jira since 6months but haven;t been through any document related to various options available and how to use them for maximum output.

There must be some conventions that help in better tracking of the issue. For instance, Logging work, Linking issues, creating sub-tasks.

It would be of help if you can share some of the features (and the conventions) that you follow while using Jira. It may vary from team-to-team but there must be some generic rules which can be followed.

Any feedback would be of help. Thanks.
