  5. Select the type of matching strategy:

    • Match Type: Select the type of matching strategy.

      • ALL_MATCH: All subtasks should match the given JQL.

      • ANY_MATCH: At least one of the subtasks should match the given JQL.

      • NO_MATCH: None of the subtasks should match JQL.

    • JQL Query: Type the JQL that the subtasks within the issue should match to proceed with the transition.

    • Message: Enter the message that should be displayed if the JQL does not match.

    • Skip when no subtasks: Enable this option to skip the validator if there are no subtasks within the issue.
