Hi @Raguramaselvan Arumugam ,

you will need to customize your workflow to meet your specific requirements. You can create custom validators, functions, etc., so I am sure you will be able to achieve what you want.

You can also try some checklists addons to help you with acceptance criteria. Please check the marketplace: https://marketplace.atlassian.com/search?query=checklists
