Jira Automation - Raise subtask after x months based on type

Question

Hello, I have a Jira automation question. I have a request type called 'Supplier Review,' and I want to set up automation to create a new sub-task 11 months after the approval and Resolved  of the original manually created task/issue. The sub-task itself is meant to perform another 'Supplier Review

Any pointers would be great.

This is what the automation looks like for the reminder:

The due date is set as part of a post function when the request is moved to approved status.

Can you share how you setup and the logic?

Hi @Mike Duncan,

Welcome to Atlassian Community!

I have a similar automation that sends our a reminder 90 days before renewal needs to be done. The way I am doing it is that when the original request gets approved a due date is set on it based on the contract length. The reminder automation is running on a schedule and compare the due date to now and the diff is 90 days a comment is added to the request and the renewal form is attached as well. Once the form is submitted a new request is created that is linked to the original one and the whole approval process starts again.
