In order to have a third level on state machine like State/Type/SubSystem is it possible on state-machine by Type to use in transitions guards that will allow something to happen in specific Subsystems?

Is the guard the only way or could a transition to the next State be defined twice with different guard for each Subsystem?

Is there something that would not allow this solutions to work?

Is there any other preferred way to do this?

Hi!

I'm Sergey from the YouTrack team.

Is the guard the only way

Yes, that's the only way, as shown in the documentation example for the assignee field here: https://www.jetbrains.com/help/youtrack/server/state-machine-per-issue-type.html#state-machine-rule-per-issue-type

guard: (ctx) => {
            if (ctx.issue.fields.Assignee) {
              workflow.message('You cannot reopen an issue unless you unassign it first');
              return false;
            }
            return true;
          },

Instead of an Assignee field, you can use any other like Subsystem.

I guessed that this could be the solution. Thank you for the confirmation :)
