Rules	Block users from resolving issues with unresolved dependencies (on-change)

Use Case

If a user tries to fix an issue that depends on another issue that is not resolved, a warning is displayed. The issue state cannot be set to Fixed.

This workflow supports the following rule:

Title	Description
Block users from resolving issues with unresolved dependencies	When the issue state is set to Fixed, the on-change rule in this module checks the list of linked issues for depends on-links. If there are any linked issues in the depends on list, the rule checks the current state of each linked issue. If all the linked issues are resolved, proceed and resolve the current issue. If any of the linked issues are not resolved, a warning is displayed. The transition to the Fixed state for the original issue is cancelled.
