Transitioning a task to done with its subtask is in todo state.

Based on this "If a task that you add is actually a group of smaller tasks, you can create sub-tasks and assign them to different people. The task will not be able to move to Done, until all the subtasks are complete as well. " I created a task and subtask, the subtask was not done but when i moved the task to done i was able to do that which is not meant to happen right?

@Boluwatife Onafujabi, this is the behavior of jira though this is incorrect theoretically.

anyway you can add “Sub-Task Blocking Condition” in you workflow to Preventing issues from being closed while the sub-tasks are still open.

how to add “Sub-Task Blocking Condition”

JIRA does not have a native functionality to close a sub task once the parent issue is closed.

If you want to define a rule like close all the sub-tasks before parent closes, you will need to set up a post function. For that you can add “Sub-Task Blocking Condition” as Alana suggested or you can use third party add-ons.

One more thing please, i can't view my sub tasks issues on my board

Alana Fernando

I assume you are referring a scrum board here. unfortunately sub task are not visible in boards. But I guess this needs more confirmation. I am keeping this reply open ended.
