A workflow condition that enforces separation of duties (for SAS-70 compliance), i.e. it makes sure that the same user cannot trigger two incompatible transitions on the same issue.

  2. In the Workflow Designer, select the transition.
  3. Click on Conditions in the properties panel.
  4. Click on Add condition.
  5. Select Separation of Duties Condition from the list of conditions.
  6. Click on Add to configure the condition on the transition.
  7. Select the from status from the From Status field.
  8. Select the to status from the To Status field.
  9. Click on Add to add the condition to the transition. 

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 set this condition on a transition, the add-on checks whether the current user has triggered any transitions between the selected From Status and the To Status. If a transition has been triggered between the two statuses, then the transition on which the condition is configured 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 selected statuses.

Refer Use cases for conditions page for use cases of this condition.
