Can epics have different status than tasks

Paul Baker

The status or progress of a task does not make sense when applied to an epic.  I would like to have only waiting, in progress, and done as epic status.

Hello @Paul Baker 

Are you using Classic projects or Next Gen projects?

I work with Classic projects, and it is definitely possible there to have an entirely different workflow for each type of issue. So yes, for Classic projects you can have different statuses for Epics than are used for tasks.

If you are working with Next Gen projects, then the answer is no, you cannot have a different workflow for Epics yet. Refer to https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/JSWCLOUD-17434
