Is it possible to copy parent's component & version while creating sub-task

Is it possible to copy parent's component & version while creating sub-task?

[Udo Brand · Accepted solution]

You can do it with JIRA Misc Workflow Extensions. Use the "Set Field Value from Parent" postfunction in the create transition of the subtask.

What will be the order of Component field in postfunction?

Is it:

1Creates the issue originally.
— THEN
2The value(s) of field Component/s will be set from the issue's parent (replacing existing values).
Edit | Move Up | Move Down | Delete
— THEN
3Fire a Issue Created event that can be processed by the listeners.

Not working. Any Idea?

[Udo Brand]

That order should work.

[Udo Brand]

sorry, order is

The value(s) of field Affects Version/s will be set from the issue's parent (replacing existing values).
Edit | Move Up | Move Down | Delete

— THEN

Creates the issue originally.

— THEN

Stores updates to an issue (no change history is created).

— THEN

Re-index an issue to keep indexes in sync with the database.

— THEN

Fire a Issue Created event that can be processed by the listeners.
