Pop-up: automatically change status of parent issue

Lars Blaschka

Hey guys,

when all subtasks have arrived the end of the defined workflow I get a pop-up which reminds me that all subtasks are done now and asks, if I want to automatically change the status of the parent issue. When I accept that, JIRA changes the status of the parent issue to "removed". But I want that it changes to "done".... I already deleted all of the standard automation rules but the pop up still appears.

How can I define that the status of the parent tasks change to done instead of removed when all subtasks are done? Or where can I disable that the popup appears?

Thank you!

Kind regards!

Lars

Hi,

If you get a popup, that means there is a screen in the transition (in your workflow).

In that transition, your probably have post-function that accept your answer "yes" or "no" and if "yes" it change the status to "removed", go there and change the "removed" to whatever status you want.

Hi Nir,

thanks for your reply.

Maybe it is because im not a native english speaker but i dont really understand your solution proposal.

What do you mean with screen in the transition or post-function? Where can I find that option to change the removed status to done status when I get this popup?

It would be great if you could give ne some more details or screenshots of the specific option menu?

Thank you!

Cheers

Lars
