How to display aggregate status of a group of sub-tasks

[Steve Rohde]

I'd like to add a custom field to Story issues that displays the earliest workflow status of a Story’s sub-tasks.

example

Given:

• a linear subtask workflow of STEP 1 >> STEP 2 >> STEP 3 >> STEP 4
• a story with sub-tasks having status values of STEP 1 and STEP 3

The story displays the value STEP 1 

Any suggestion on how to implement this would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!

Hi Steve,

If you have Scriptrunner add-on, you can easily implement this using a scripted field. The script behind it will basically go through all subtasks of a story (if any), check the status of each of them and return the earliest one as the field's value.
