Perform post function with jira-tool-box so custom user picker fields are updated when a user executes the workflow transition

Issue #258 resolved
Phet Phosy created an issue

The objective of the additional fields is to capture who and when the CCP (change control process) was reviewed and approved. The current workflow captures this only in the comment field and if the person didn't leave a comment, then there's no trace of who did what unless once looks at the history tab. To get this going for the team, I've made the comment field as required to get them by.

Any chance we can utilize jira workflow toolbox for this?

    Hi Phet you can do it as follows:

    1. Create Date-Time Picker custom field called "CCP reviewed and approved on".

    2. Create User Picker custom field called "CCP reviewed and approved by".

    3. Add post-function "Copy a parsed text to a field" to transition where CCP is reviewed and approved with the following configuration: Captura de pantalla 2016-03-02 a las 23.30.11.png

    4. Add post-function "Mathematical and date-time expression calculator" to transition where CCP is reviewed and approved with the following configuration: Captura de pantalla 2016-03-02 a las 23.32.31.png

    Note that:

    • %{00020} is field code for "Current user".
    • {00057} is code for numeric value of "Current date and time".
