I want to copy the summary field into the subtask automatically. Whenever i create a subtask for my issue, it should take summary field automatically from the parent issue.
Is that possible? I am using JIRA 5.2.10 version curently.
Thank you!!
There are several ways I guess, in my case I use Exocet-Lite plugin in order to achieve this. But there are other plugins around which can do this as well.
I have installed Exocet-Lite plug-in but still summary field is not auto populating in sub-task.
Done mapping from parent to child as Summary.
Please assist.
sorry, was ofline for a couple of hours.
You would need to use your own Operations.xml (not the default one).
in my case the operation looks like this.
<operation key="1" label="Create Testexecution" title="Testexecution from Testcase" duplicateAttachments="false" > <!-- parent Issue type Testcase--> <criteria key="ID_TYPE" value="22" /> <!-- JIRA project CRWTES--> <!--criteria key="ID_PROJECT" value="10701" /--> <!-- JIRA Status TC - In progress 10031--> <criteria key="ID_STATUS" value="10031" /> <!-- issue child --> <!-- id type 21 : Testexecution --> <targetIssue projectId="-1" issueTypeId="21" isSubtask="true"/> <!-- custom link 10100 jira_subtask_link--> <link type="10100" direction ="inward"/> <watcher/> <parentFieldToUpdate/> </operation>
You need to replace according to the documentation the used ids.
Then you map the fields. Now when you use the corresponding action under More the created Sub-task should have the same summary as the parent.
I'm using copy to subtask plug-in for mapping the parent issue fields with that of sub-task but it is not working on system fields like summary. Do you have any idea about that?
