Hello @Bruno Xavier
There is a difference between "linked" issues and subtasks. Are you concerned with both, or with just subtasks?
If you do want to consider linked issues, do you want to consider all linked issue, or only issue linked in a specific manner or from specific projects?
There are two basic methods this could be handled.
With one method, each time an issue is marked as "done" you find its parent (if it was a subtask), and/or its linked issues. Once you have that (the parent and/or linked issues) then you have to check if all the subtasks of that parent (or all issues linked to it) are "done". If they are, then you update the issue.
This could cause a large number of rule executions to occur, and there is a change to the limits and model for counting executions that is going into affect soon. You need to evaluate if the above method would cause you to hit those limits.
The second method is to create a Scheduled rule that selects the issues you would want to consider updating, and then checks all their subtasks and linked issues to see if those are done. This results in fewer rule executions, but there may be some delay between when all the subtasks/linked issues are done and when the issue you care about gets updated.
Other scenarios you should consider are:
- what if your issue has been manually set to done but a subtask or linked issue is not done?
- what if everything is set to done, but on a future date one of the subtasks or linked issues is reopened?
