Specifying the incompatible transition
JIRA does not keep a track of the actual transitions (or workflow actions) but only of the changes in the status of an issue. So it is impossible to distinguish between two transitions that share the same source and destination statuses. Therefore, this condition requires that you specify transitions in the form of a destination status and a source status (or Any for all transitions leading to the destination status).
When you add this condition on a transition, the add-on checks whether the current user has triggered any transitions between the specified From and To statuses. In case it finds that a transition has been triggered between the two statuses, then the transition on which the condition is placed will be hidden from the user.
In short, the selected transition will be available to the user, as long as the user does not trigger any transition between the two specified statuses.
Refer Use cases for conditions page for use cases of this condition.
