Condition on editing issue details

[Daniel Juravski]

Hi,

I have on my issue "field1" and "field2" that were created with some values.

When I edit my issue, how can I make a condition that checks if the new value of "field1" is greater than "field2" - and only if it is , I can save my new value ? 

Hope I expressed my wish well.

Hello @Daniel Juravski

You cannot do it out of the box.

But you can use some plugins like Scriptrunner, PowerScripts, Jira Suite Utillities and create validator that will check your condition.

Hi, I have those add-on's, the problem is that I don't know WHERE to write those scripts.

In scriptrunner behaviour you can go to add-ons -> behaviours -> add one -> map to your project and issue type -> fields -> add field1 -> add serverside script

and script like this 

if (getActionName() == null){ //check that we are on edit screen
    def cf1 = getFieldByName("field1")
    def cf2 = getFieldByName("field2")
    if (cf1.getValue() < cf2.getValue()){
        cf1.setError("field1 must be greater than field2")
    }
    else {
        cf1.clearError()
    }
}

Hi @Daniel Juravski ,

You have to write simple script validator on transition to check values of two fields. 

thanks,

Hello,

You would need an add-on for it. For example, Power Scripts (Live Fields) or ScriptRunner (Behaviours)

OK, but where I write that script ?
