I have a drop-down with values - Receptionist, HR, IT etc., If receptionist is chosen from the drop-down, few sub-tasks configured for that role should be created (not all) If HR is chosen from the drop-down, few sub-tasks configured for that role should be created (not all) If IT is chosen from the drop-down, few sub-tasks configured for that role should be created (not all)
May I know how to configure this in Jira?

There's no configuration of this source out of the box for JIRA.
Some alternatives include running a Jelly script to execute on a filter to create a subtask or using a remote API to create this.
Based on online references, I am planning to user Scriptrunner for this. Any idea on how to do the customization based on custom field value selection?
If you want to do this as part of a workflow transition, then Create on Transition Plugin for JIRA will do that.
Bob,
I am already using your plugin from long time. Very helpful plugin.
But in this case, I have around 14 custom field drop down options and 23 sub-tasks out of which only certain of them get created based on the drop down selection. As the list might get too huge with your plugin, I was looking for other options like scripting. Is there a way that I can shrink them into very less number of actions using 'Create sub-task on transition'?
Sounds like a custom script is necessary if there are so many combinations.
However, each of the sub-task should be assigned to a different assignee. Also, I need certain parent fields to be copied over to sub-task. How can I achieve this?
I have added this
switch(subTaskName) { case "Please setup ABCD" : issueObject.setAssignee(username) break;}
