Use case
Keeping parent issues and sub-tasks in sync is a lot of manual work. Therefore, the following use case will update the status of all sub-tasks based on the parent status: When the parent issue is rejected, all sub-tasks are also being rejected.
Configuration
Add the Transition issue post function to the desired transition or create a new transition.
In our case we created a transition called Reject that goes to status Rejected.
Target issue
Choose Sub-tasks
Mode
Choose Transition to status and select Rejected from the drop down menu.
Make sure that the status can be reached by the sub-tasks from their current status. Otherwise they won't be transitioned.
