I would like to prevent logging of working time with a child issue connected.

Question

Hi Community,

I have an epic in project X. Login uptimes are disabled on the epic. Users attach child issue to this Epik. What would I like to achieve? I would like to prevent logging of working time with a child issue connected. But only on this, not on the entire project.

Hi Dąbrowski.

Apart from the great suggestion from Hariharan, another feasible workaround would be to create a specific status in the workflow so that you can add the property jira.issue.editable = false

Moving the Epic to that specific status with the property will prevent users from performing any changes.

Hope that helps

Hi @Dąbrowski Damian ,

It may not be possible to do disable editing for a single epic, but what you can do, is set up an automation that restores the original value in case of any change. Here's an example that I use for Story Point Estimate

You will need to modify the field in the above example and also add an additional condition to check the epic according to your requirements.

Hope that helps!
