How to set Due Date once All child tickets have a status of "Done"

Question

I want to create an automation rule where:

User Story

* When subtask = "Done" move parent (User Story) to "Done"
* When ALL subtasks move to "Done", then Update User Story "Due Date" to current date.

Epic:

* When user story = "Done" move parent (Epic) to "Done"
* When ALL user stories move to "Done", then update Epic "Due Date" to current date.

Hey Pete - so sorry for the delay, I have been very busy lately.

I would add a Condition to check if the Issue Type = Sub-task (before the Edit Issue)

Then add a branch after the condition for Parent

Add Condition to check that all of the children are Done

Then move the Edit issue under the branch.

See the example here:

Thanks @John Funk - Here is a screenshot. I basically want to capture the due date on the parent, when all the subtask/child tickets are moved to "DONE".

Questions.

* How do I ensure that the DUE DATE doesn't keep updating each time a subtask/child task moves into the "DONE' status. They could be moving to the "DONE" status at different times. I want the DUE DATE when ALL the subtasks/child tickets are moved to DONE.
* Do I add the DUE DATE rule as a separate branch, or do I incorporate it to the Transition Status rule above?

Sure, if you share your rule, then we can discuss what to add - that will be easier.
