  1. Select the workflow and click .

  2. Select the initial status in the Statuses and transitions panel.

  4. Configure a new transition:

    Field Description
    Transition to status Indicate the status to transition to.
    Button name The name of the button in the Tracker interface that will switch the issue to this status. The same name is used for the transition in the editor.
    Button name in English The name of the button in the English Tracker interface that will switch the issue to this status.
  5. Click Save.

  6. Edit your transition if you want to add conditions or auto actions.

    Field Description
    Transition to status Indicate the status to transition to.
    Button name The name of the button in the Tracker interface that will switch the issue to this status. The same name is used for the transition in the editor.
    Button name in English The name of the button in the English Tracker interface that will switch the issue to this status.
  5. Click Save.

  1. Select the workflow and click .

  2. Select the transition from the right column of the Statuses and transitions panel.

  3. Go to the Screen tab.

  4. Enable the Show screen for this transition option.
