Hi @Star Support Welcome to the Atlassian Community.

The transitions in a workflow (the arrows) can also have a pre-condition that has to be met to allow a transition. Please check that by editing the workflow, clicking on diagram layout, then click on the transition arrow that you're trying to accomplish. You can then select properties and review the pre-conditions to that transition.

Kind regards,
Dick
