Prevent changes to all but one field after particular workflow status?

[Alex Cook]

I'm building a new CAB/RFC process in Jira to replace emailing word documents back and forth, and I'm just in the final stages of testing.

I've used the "jira.issue.editable" = false property once a ticket has gone past RFC Approved in the workflow, and that's all behaving as you'd expect.

I do however want the assignee to be able (and required) to set a "Change outcome" field when they move it to the last stage of the workflow.

What's the best way of doing that? Will an automation override the editable property?

It's been done as a Team Managed Project, so that may limit options.

Hi @Alex Cook 

Use a transition screen on on the transition between statuses. Place the field "Change outcome" on the transition screen.

Then on a transition between statuses this field can be edited.

Ah, it's been done as a Team Managed project, so that's not going to be an option unless we rebuild it
