State Transition Error

[Arslan Hafeez]

I am having an issue in state transition. The subtask is created with "Open" state but I want it to be created with "AC Refinement" state. This state come immediate after "Open" state in workflow.

Note: I have a different workflow for subtasks. Manually I can shift from "Open" to "AC Refienment" after creation of subtask but I want to achieve it with automation.

Hi @Arslan Hafeez ,

Welcome to the Atlassian Community.

The above automation  is telling the current issue (parent task) to move to AC Refinement, reason it fails (error) and the sub-task is not transitioning

You should use branching as below to accomplish what you are looking for

@Sam Bartolome  Thanks. That works.

If it works, could you set the answer as valid?

Thanks
