Hi @Ammad Ali

If you are a jira admin, then you can modify the workflows of the user story to add a validator to check whether the users are part of the PO or admin roles. If they are not, then the create action will fail. You can have a subtask workflow that doesnt have this restriction to allow any one with create permission to create the subtasks
