I want to copy summary and some custom fields from parent to sub task while creating sub task issue

Hi all,

I want to copy the summary and some custom fields from parent to subtask while creating the sub-task issue

Hi @Sai Gangadhar ,

You would like to copy the parent field values during the sub-task creation or you would like copy the parent field values after sub-task creation. If you are looking for automatic sub task issue creation, then you can make use of Script runner, JMWE, JSU or other workflow extensions app to achieve your requirement. 

Thanks,
Avinash

Hi @Sai Gangadhar 

I work for Elements, and our app Elements Copy & Sync could help. It can copy information from a parent issue to a child issue, and even synchronize changes if you want.

Check out this video that shows how the app works to copy fields between issues (the video doesn't create sub-tasks but you can create sub-tasks with the app).
