Hi @MURUGESH S

Are you trying to create the tasks with an automation rule, setting their due dates based on the epic's due date (or "now") plus / minus the estimated effort duration?

If so, you can do that with a rule, using the date / time functions: https://support.atlassian.com/cloud-automation/docs/jira-smart-values-date-and-time/

To get you started on creating your rule, please refer to these documentation and example sources:
