Do Approvals work on Scrum Projects?

Matteo Pacenti

Hello,

I'm trying to put in place a workflow for my Scrum Project in Jira. 

At one point, in a transition, I need approval and I need to NOT allow the next status until the approval is confirmed by the specific person. 

I checked the Add Approval checkbox and I even added the screen with the related custom field for approvers, but I still don't see any behaviour that I'm expecting:
- anyone can move the ticket to next status (Approved)
- the person is not notified.

 

Thanks,

Hi @Matteo Pacenti 

Software projects do not have approval behaviors as Service Desk.

What I would do if I would implement your scenario, is setting a Condition in the "Approval" transition, based in a Project Role or Group.

Then only who is in this Project Role / Group is able to transition to the Status Approved.
