Hi Priyanka - Welcome to the Atlassian Community! You can go to Project > Settings > People and add persons to the project there. 

Ah, it's because you are using a simplified Workflow Scheme. You will need to create a new Workflow scheme that uses those two workflows. :-( Create the workflow first, and then add the two workflows in. And then change the workflow scheme on the project from the current one to the new one you created. 

Hi @Abdirizak Obsiye - You might want to check the transitions to each of those statuses in your Workflow to see if the assignee is getting cleared there. 

Try something like the above except use In Develop instead of Develop Underway in my example (I don't have the In Develop status). And use On Hold instead of Blocked (I don't use the On Hold status either). The For JQL is a Branch Rule.

They are working hard to get these kinds of things added to Next-gen - but it's a lot to do right now. 

Nevermind - I see you said it was Next-gen. No, I am afraid this is not available to have the comment with the Flag in Next-gen. 

True! Can you post of screenshot of what you see when you click on Add Flag?

Hi Matt - In reality, having the comment box for the Add Flag is simply adding a comment to the issue. So you can add the Flag and then add a comment as normal to the issue. I don't know if the Free version stifles that for some reason or not. It's an extra step but accomplishes the same thing. 

Great - Thanks!

Here is the link to the Automation For Jira documentation to help you get started. Give it a try and then post back here when you have questions. Let us know how it goes! https://support.atlassian.com/jira-software-cloud/docs/automate-your-jira-cloud-processes-and-workflows/

Here's the link to the documentation for the tool to help you get started. Take a look there and try some things out and then post when you need help. :-) https://support.atlassian.com/jira-software-cloud/docs/automate-your-jira-cloud-processes-and-workflows/

That's a tough one then. I though about moving some of the existing issues to the new status to cut down on the number of records that need to be moved all at once. So after you do the publish and it says it is complete. If you then click on the Workflow Scheme, it doesn't show that the new workflow is in there? And…

Let us know here how it ends up for you. When you have the solution, can you post and click the Accept answer button above to close this one out? Thanks!

Hi Adam - Welcome to the Atlassian Community! Can you provide some more details as to what you are trying to do? I am a little confused by the question. 

So if a task moves to In Develop - then you want all other tasks assigned to that same Developer to move to On Hold. Is that correct?

Great - glad I was able to help!

I would go ahead and put in a support ticket with Atlassian here: https://support.atlassian.com/contact/#/ Do you mind coming back here after you have and answer/fix and updating this thread?

Hi Sean - Just make sure that the transition to CLOSED does not include any post functions that update the Resolution field. 

Great - glad I could help!

Hi @[deleted] - You can do this by using the Automation For Jira add-on. Do you have that tool?

Hi Anton - You can certainly do this with Automation for Jira. Are task 1 and task 2 linked in any way? The rule would have to know which issue to update. 

The parent you list does not appear to be in the list of projects. Is that the case?

Awesome - glad you figured it out. :-) Can you click on the Accept Answer button above so we can close this one out? Thanks!

Yep- that's it!

Yes, that's correct.

WOW, so many people!! I think it might be Moses from Biblical times - so many questions for him, HA!

WOW - hadn't noticed yet, but ours is doing it, too! I will put in a Support Request with Atlassian and let you know. 

Hi Mike, Sure, you can do that using Automation For Jira. Let me know if you need help with that. 

Just a thought - but let the user enter whatever they want but then overwrite it at create with a combination of values from the fields you are capturing. 

Hi Reynalda and Welcome to the Community! We are glad you are here!
