Change status of issue based on linked issues

Javid Huseynli January 31, 2023

Hi,

I need an automation rule based on linked issues.

The case is: 

When all linked issues with link "end before" are "Done", then change the status of main task to "To do". 

I built a rule, but it changes if one of linked issues is done.

You are on the right path!

What you can do is to add a check whether the issue you are moving, has any remaining linked issues that are not in "done". You want to do this check so it does not move until it has no more linked issues that are not done. I hope I understood you correctly.

See my suggestion:

A correction in the screenshot. In the field it says "condition", it should be "none match" and not "all match". Reason for this is because we want there to be no issues left when we transition the issue to "To-do". Pardon my mistake.

It worked perfect. Thank you!

Hi @Simen Eriksen 

Need your help again :) There is a think I have to fix. 

When the task with End before link type has the Done status, the issue with Start after link type is automatically set to TO DO status. But sometimes next task is already in progress or done. And this breaks the work, because the task is again put in To DO. How can I set the automation, so that the next task is automatically put in the TO DO status, if only have Backlog status.
