@Pravin Awati This is a SIL script. You need Power scripts plugin. I haven't tried performing the request in Script runner. Thanks.

@Pravin Awati Below is the SIL script that needs to be called in the "Hold" post function to move all sub task to hold. Hope it helps.

string cuser = currentUser();
runAs(cuser);
string issuekeyy = key;
string [] alltasks = subtasks(issuekeyy);
string singleid;

for(singleid in alltasks)
{
string typeissue;
string substate;
typeissue = %singleid%.key.issueType;
substate = %singleid%.key.status;
if (%singleid%.key.status != "Hold")
{
autotransition("Hold",singleid, true, true, true);
}
}
