Features can be created once the epic is in certain status. (Feature is a Child of Epic in our hiera

[Vivek Karna]

We have a requirement where Feature that is child issues can be created only when the Parent (Epic) is in certain status like (Committed, Ready for dev review etc ).

Please advise how to proceed . 

I have add ons like JMWE and Script Runner.

Hi,

Are you on Jira Server/DC or Cloud?

In both cases, you can use a Related Issue Status Validator from our JMWE app on the "Create" transition of the story/task/whatever workflow (the workflow(s) of the issues that can belong to an Epic). This will not _hide_ the Create button (obviously) but it will display an error message when you try to submit your new issue.

Hi David ,

Can you help with the steps too please? 

I am using Jira server with JMWE APP 

[Vivek Karna]

Please find the screenshot of the validator i have used. Please advise 

[David Fischer]

You have selected the "issue/sub-task" link type, which is not the same as Jira Software's Epic/Story relationship. Please select "Epic o the current issue" instead.

David , Doesnt seem to work .

Can we have a call on zoom if thats sounds ok to you ?

[David Fischer]

Vivek,

you need to open a support request with Innovalog: https://innovalog.atlassian.net/servicedesk/customer/portal/8

We don't offer Zoom-based support though. You'll need to share your current Validator configuration and the problem you're encountering.
