can use "onhold" feature to transition an issue back to its previous status. Here are the steps,
In workflow, Create a global transition to the 'On Hold' status.
Now from 'On Hold' status create another transition to every other status you want to come
back to
Since the transition names cannot be the same, just add a blank space at the end of it.
Now you don't want the status transition from the 'On Hold' and 'Done' to 'On Hold' So you will
hide the other status "On Hold" by adding the value field condition on the global transition.
