Current Status Condition
A workflow condition that allows you to hide/show a particular transition from the list of available workflow actions, based on the current status of the issue.
This is especially useful to hide Global transitions from multiple statuses. The transition on which the condition is configured will be available only if the issue is in one of the selected status(es).
To add 'Current Status Condition' to a transition:
Click Edit for the workflow that has the transition you wish to configure the condition on.
In the Workflow Designer, select the transition.
Click on
Conditions
in the properties panel.Click on
Add condition
.Select
Current Status Condition
from the list of conditions.Click on
Add
to add the condition on the transition.Select the current status(es) from the
Current Status
field.Click on
Add
to add the condition to the transition.

When you add this condition to a transition, the add-on checks the current status of the issue. If the issue is in one of the selected status(es), then the transition will be available to the user. If not, the transition will be hidden.
Use case
A typical use of this workflow condition is to disable a global transition from certain statuses. Consider a use case where you do not want to show the “Escalate” transition from the “Closed” status. To configure this:
Add the “Current Status Condition”
Select all the statuses in the configuration except the “Close” status
Save the condition
Publish the workflow
See Use Cases for Conditions (Legacy) for more uses cases for this condition.
