How to connect issue and sub-task statuses?

Question

Hi,

I would like the parent task to change automatically the status for 'in progress' once its sub-task is set to 'in progress'. How can this be done?

Thank you in advance

Karol

Hey @Karol Baryło

You can do this by using Jira Suite Utilities if you are on a Server instance of Jira.

If not, I'll leave this for someone else in the community to answer if they have a suggestion. Good luck!
