I need to create a sub-task and copy a custom field from the main task to the create form.

How can I do this?

Hi @Enso-Sa and welcome

In that specific Project, click on Project settings - Summary and then you can see what Issue Type Screen Scheme and Issue Screen Scheme are being used. Click on the bold hyperlink under "Scheme:" to see what Issue Screen Scheme sub-task is using. Then add the custom field to the appropriate screens (Create, Edit, and/or View).

Hi @Enso-Sa ,

You can use automation, like this for example:

The trigger : when an issue is created.

The condition: issue is a subtask.

The action : edit issue : choose your custom field and the choose copy from parent.
