automatic transition between 2 issues

[Christophe Roussin]

Hello,

I would like to know if it is possible to change an issue status when an other issue status has changed.

These two issues are linked together

Exemple:

When a requirement status has changed (specified to design)

Then th Test case status change from approve to design

you should be able to accomplish this via Automation. The details and success will depend on your specific details. Something like this....

Trigger: Issue Transitions

Condition 1: issue has links

Condition 2: something to ensure that you don't transition the linked issues when undesirable

Action: transition the linked issue to desired status

Thank you for replying so quickly. I will analyse this plugin. Thanks again

no plugin is required. You have Automation under project settings. Here is a link to get you to docs - what-are-automation-rules

@Christophe Roussin Hi, 

It is possible and we made a tutorial article about that for Requirements and Test Management plugin but you can use that with any other tool. 

You can find the article here:

There are also a few other useful tips.

Hi Christophe,

This is certainly possible using Automation For Jira. Here is some more information about the tool to get you started. Once you have a rule created, post back here for any additional help you might need.

There are two types of automation:

• Global: In the Free version, you get 100 executions per product, per month
• Project: In all versions, you get unlimited executions per month

Automation Basics: https://www.atlassian.com/software/jira/guides/expand-jira/automation

You can do this via global rules to apply to all projects also. You'll need to be a Jira Admin/Site Admin, go to Jira Settings > System > Automation Rules (left-hand menu).

For more on using Automation For Jira see these help pages.
