Close parent via status of any 1 subtask

Dylan George August 11, 2016

Parent assignment has subtasks. Subtasks can either be Approved or Rejected. How can I make it so the parent task can be closed ONLY if ANY 1 subtask is approved?

 

******************************************Approve is a workflow status

Is approve a workflow status or a custom field?

Conditions must be set in the workflow to allow the outcome of what you want with your subtasks.

The condition is actually called "Sub-Task Blocking Condition" if that helps at all.

Thank you, yes I see this blocking condition. However, I can only find the option to close the parent task if ALL the subtasks are Approved. I want to ability to have engineers submit subtasks from a parent, my team Approve or Reject, and only when 1 subtask is Approved will the parent close.
