Hi @Jwan Mohammed 

By default Jira should handle this case I mean ideally before completing a sprint all sub-tasks should Done but if a parent task item is not completed, it will be moved to a future sprint or to the Backlog when the sprint is completed.

So overall when completing you should have a choice: 

  • Backlog - to move the work items to the backlog
  • Any future sprint - to move the work items to any future sprint that's already created
  • New sprint - to create a new sprint and then move the work items to the new sprint

Just keep in mind that when a sprint is shared between multiple boards, only work items from the board that is completing the sprint will be carried over to the future sprint or new sprint. Any incomplete work items from other boards will be moved to the Backlog instead.
