How do I create a sub-task that copies Labels from the parent but not the time tracking?

I have a workflow that on a transition creates two sub-tasks, for these sub-tasks I want to copy some details from the parent to the sub-task such as any Lables used in the parent  issue. 

At the moment I can do this by adding a post function to create the sub-task but all details are copied from the parent including the time tracking.  Is there a way to create the sub-task but only copy specific Detail fields? 

I have tried changing the summary section of the post function as that has a 'Numeric/Date Field Code Injector:' drop down menu but anything I try gives a parse error and the workflow transition fails

Thanks

Hi @David_Sweet,

I am not sure how you are triggering the subtask creations. But if you want the time estimates to not to show up, you can clear the field value using native "Update Issue Field" post function.

Thanks,

Swathi
