Automation to mark related trigger task as done when all related tasks are marked as done.

Question

Hi brains trust,

We use work management and I have an automation scenario that does the following

* When a task in project 1has it's status changed to "In progress" then,
* Based on a certain field, create 1-3 related tasks in project 2 (based on the work required)

This part works perfectly, but...

The next part I'm trying to figure out is

* When all related tasks in Project 2 are marked as done then,
* Mark the original trigger issue as "Done".

Due to the nature of the process I can't use sub-tasks and they have to be related tasks.

Is anyone able to help? Thank you.

Hi Mohanraj, in the example where you say condition 'Project'= "Company Scrum", is that = to my project 1 or 2 in my requirement?

i.e. in my requirement, the trigger issue transition would be in Project 2, but I need to close off the parent linked issue in Project 1.
