How to disable editing issues in a project after transition to DONE?

Hi @Yousuf Al Rawahi 

thank you for your question. That's actually a perfect scenario for using workflow properties.

These can be added to the DONE status and will prevent the issue from being edited.

Is it from here?

Yes. Here is a link to some additional information about workflow properties:

In your particular case, you will want to put in the following Property Key/Value

Key = jira.issue.editable

Value = false

Hi @Yousuf Al Rawahi - your screenshot is for the transition property, to prevent updates you need to modify the status property instead.

Instead of clicking on the Done transition, click on the Done status to access the property screen for that status (under Options section).

Then you can enter the required property values (eg. jira.issue.editable = false).

You might also want to add the status property jira.permission.comment.denied to prevent comments from being added when the ticket is in the Done status.

Thanks!
It worked.
