But when I try to create the defect /story /issue it show :-

But I want only :To Do, In Progress

The phrase "Transition To -->" is not standard Jira deaign, but there could be some issue with your workflow transition naming.

When an epic/story is created, the workflow button should display just the transition name i.e. "Start Progress", whereas the epic/story status should show the current workflow state.

If you can attach screenshots, it would be useful to check and suggest.

Hi Alex,

I am not able to follow the resolution given by you. Could you please give details steps.

Problem Statement:-

In a newly created workflow we give Transition names for eg. Start Progress, Resolve issue etc. Now when we create a story/task/epic we see the status as below:-

Transition to -->To DO

Transition To->In Progress

Now the question is, is the above view proper. Or the phrase "Transition to -->" should it really appear. If the screen is standard/as designed in Jira with phrase "Transition To-->" then we will not worry. But if this phrase should not appear then we want to resolve and remove it. Please help me in resolving the above issue today.

Did you put the post function as the last post function in the list of post function for the create transition?
