When you create a sub-task can you automatically inherit fix version from the parent without add-on

Question

When creating a sub-task, the fix version of the sub-task needs to be set separately. In most cases, the sub-task will have the same fix version as the parent task. Is there a way that this is done by default whenever a sub-task is created ?

If not, are there some pointers that will help me to create a plugin that will do this job for me ?

You need to create a post function plugin. Which would find the parent of the sub-task and set the fix version for the sub-task.

You can use Power Scripts or ScriptRunner plugins. These plugins will make it easier for you to create such functions.
