Workflow Condition

The status in the Excel-like Issue Editor behaves the same as standard Jira workflow. The spreadsheet would not show the status with a condition in the dropdown option.

Technical Limitation:

We cannot open a transition screen directly due to technical limitations. However, users can open an issue screen dialog to open the transition screen.
