implement a rule to not allowing story to be marked done if all the subtasks are not done. Only if all subtasks are done then allow story to be marked done.

Hi @Purvi Patel

If you are in a company managed project, then there is ootb Subtask blocking condition, which will be much easier to use

I am not a Jira expert, would you be able to direct me how to set it up?

Sure! Follow the steps:

1. Identify the Workflow:
   • Go to your Jira project's settings > 'Workflows'.
   • Find the workflow associated with the issue type where you want to enforce closing sub-tasks first
   • If you see the new editor, switch to the old editor.
2. Locate the Transition:
   • In diagram mode, click on the line pointing to the Done status and click Conditions in the properties panel
3. Add a Condition:
   
   • Add a new condition of the type "Sub-Task Blocking Condition".
   • Select all the sub-task statuses required to allow parent issue transition
4. Save and Publish:
   • Save your changes to the validator.
   • Publish the updated workflow.

You can also check out the video where I follow similar steps, but I am adding a different validator. The steps at the beginning are very similar.

I hope this is helpful for you, regards!
