Restrict Sub-task move to other issue type and based on parent issue type

Question

Hi Team,,

I am working on requirements to restrict subtasks for specific parent issue types. Will these cases fit the scenarios?
I used this behavior to restrict the subtasks to parent tickets. https://library.adaptavist.com/entity/restrict-subtask-options

How to restrict the sub-tasks in the below scenarios.  Do you have any script samples to achieve these requirements?

1. If Parent is issue type "Project" : I shouldn't be allowed to move "Sub-task" issue type to "Connection" sub-task.

2. And moving parent "Opportunity" issue type to "Project" issue type, I should not be allowed if any "Connection" subtasks are created to the Opportunity parent.

Hi @jira_admin_cu

If I understand correctly, what you need is related to the "Move" option, because it allows you to change the issue type, perhaps overriding the behavior set in the Create Screen.

In that case, you can't limit the list of options, but you can hide the "Move" option.

I would only recommend this approach in one specific case: when in both scenarios, the issue type cannot be changed. For example, if you can change the issue type from "Opportunity" to "Discovery" but not to "Project" (as described in the second scenario), then hiding the "Move" option is not a viable solution for you.
