Goal

Save time and effort by streamlining approvals processes

Scenario

If you use Jira to manage approvals in a workflow, then you'll know how any unnecessary steps and actions can cause frustration and downtime for those requesting approval, and those approving too.

How to configure this rule

...

  1. Go to an open issue in your Approvals project. In our case, we have an issue currently in  

    Status
    colourBlue
    titleIn progress
     and with a Budget Requiredof 500.

  2. Now, let's move the status to 

    Status
    colourBlue
    titlesubmit
     and watch the magic happen!

  3. The issue moves to the 

    Status
    colourBlue
    titlesubmit
     status, and then a second (or two) later, automatically to the 
    Status
    colourBlue
    titleapproved
     status!


    HINT: The issue history confirms this streamlined transition occurred.

  4. Now try the same scenario, but where the Budget Required is 1,000, or more.

  5. Let's move this issue to 

    Status
    colourBlue
    titlesubmit
     just like we did before.

  6. Again, the issue is forwarded to its appropriate next transition; in this case, as the Budget Required valueis greater-than-or-equal-to 1,000, it's moved to 

    Status
    colourBlue
    titleawaiting approval
    .

  7. The issue history confirms that JSU helped us streamline the approvals here.

    There you have it! Streamlining your approval processes in Jira just got a lot easier thanks to the power of JSU (star)
