Set field using a conditional expression in a post-function

[Pierre-Jean Constant]

Hello,

Do you think it should be possible to have a post-function to build expression like this one :

If Customfield_xxx == A Customfield_yyy = X Else if (Customfield_xxx == B Or Customfield_xxx != C) Customfield_yyy = Y Else Customfield_yyy = W End

Thx in advance for your answer.

That functionality is currently implementable using post-function "Set a field as a function of other fields" using the following configuration:

For readability I copy here the 3 setting rules used:

[%{12302}="A"]X

[%{12302}="B" or %{12302}!="C"]Y

[true]W

Notice that:

• I assume that fields "X" and "Y" contain text values. In case these fields are of type Number or Date-Time you should use its numeric value, i.e., you should use field codes without '%' prefix: {12302}
• In boolean expressions we use double quotes to write literal string values, in case fields "X" and "Y" are of type Number or Date-Time, you should write literal numeric or date-time values without double quotes, e.g., 25.1 or 2014/08/04 17:30.
• Parameter "Field to be checked for matching..." isn't used in this configuration, since we are only using type 2 setting rules, and that parameter is meant to be used in type 1 setting rules.

Once configured, post-function will look like this:

I close this issue. Please, reopen it if you are not able to implement the proposed solution.

Ok it's working fine :-) Thx a lot !

Fidel, Hay alguna forma de realizar lo siguiente:

IF (summary = {vacio} AND CustomField(A)!={vacio}) THEN summary := CustomField(A)

Muchísimas Gracias desde Argentina!

Use "Set field as a function of other fields" with the following configuration:

Note that:

• %{00000} is field code for "Summary"
• %{12800} is field code for custom field A in my JIRA instance. Custom field's codes depends on each particular JIRA instance.

Once configured, "Create Issue" transition will look like this:
