Hello @Sohail Alam 

You can move the "If" condition outside of the branch to check that issue whihc was transitioned was a sub-task, and you dont need further check on sub-task status inside branch.. you can do that at the trigger itself.

Thank you @Kalyan Sattaluri , it`s working now.

Great. One suggestion is that inside your branch, you do a check that the parent is not In Progress already, or any other statuses. You dont want to "de-transition" the parent if its already in "In progress"...

Thank you, and one more question, instead of updating all 3 subtasks to In progress and changing the status of Parent, can we do like if the 2nd subtask with Summary ABC is moved into Progress, then change the status of the Parent?

Thanks

You can do that check before the branch, please my screenshot below.

Please note, I am using If/Else block instead of normal If cause it lets us use multiple if conditions directly.

So I added 2 conditions. One checks field condition, another is JQL check.. 

Also, not sure about second sub-task check. It gets complicated once we go that route.

I have been trying to move the parent status to Waiting for implementation if the subtasks are moved to in progress. There are 3 sub tasks where if any one is changed to In progress then move the parent to Waiting for implementation.

Thanks
