Imagine you are a Manager and your team was assigned a creative project. You have prepared a Creative Document containing details of the project and have uploaded this in a Jira issue. 

You have also created sub-tasks subtasks for each team member to work on. To ensure that all team members are aware of the details of the project, you would like to attach this Creative Document in all sub-taskssubtasks. 

JSU will save you time and effort from having to manually upload uploading the document in each sub-tasksubtask. All you need to do is configure the JSU post-function “Copy/Move attachments” and it will copy the document from the parent issue to your team’s sub-tasks.
