Epic can be closed only when all child stories are done

Sameeksha Santhosh Naik August 29, 2025

I want a Jira automation rule that ensures:

  • If someone transitions an Epic → Done,

  • The rule checks whether all child stories/issues inside the Epic are also in Done.

  • If not, it automatically moves the Epic back to In Progress.
