You can use a plugin to provide "create issue on transition" type functions. I'd look at using the script runner plugin for this.

Have you tried searching the marketplace for "create on transition"?

As I already said, you could use the script runner plugin.

I'm not aware of any that ask you for details though - they all assume you're going to put the logic in the transition. I'd put the project and issue type as fields in the transition screen though, then clear them as part of the script (so they don't get written to the original issue every time)

Hi Nic,

How can you help me to set up "script runner plugin"

Start by installing it from the marketplace. Then read the documentation for it - there are loads of examples in there.
