Depend upon the select list Value the assignee of subtask has to change

[Kumar]

Hi Team,

I have a select list field 

select list : optionsA, optionB and optionC

now when the user create a story if he select the select list value “OptionC” so now if the story has any subtask those all subtask assignee has to change to Reporter of the Story(parent issue).

Could you please help how to resolve this issue.

Thanks,

Kumar

ok, you will need a postfunction in the creation of the subtask. 

Think this should work, maybe you need somefine tuning

import com.atlassian.core.util.DateUtils
import com.atlassian.jira.component.ComponentAccessor
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.util.DefaultIssueChangeHolder
import java.sql.Timestamp;
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.Issue
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.ModifiedValue
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.MutableIssue

def issueManager = ComponentAccessor.getIssueManager()

def customFieldManager = ComponentAccessor.getCustomFieldManager()
def changeHolder = new DefaultIssueChangeHolder()

def parentissue = issue.getParentObject()

def cf = customFieldManager.getCustomFieldObjects(parentissue)?.find { it.name == "your_fieldname" }

if (parentissue.getCustomFieldValue(cf).toString()=='option C'){
log.warn parentissue.getReporter()
issue.setAssignee(parentissue.getReporter())
issue.store()
}

Question: how does the parent issue linked subtasks before creation? or you want that change to be triggered whenever the select field is changed to option C?

[Kumar]

I will give an example

Now when the user created a Story if he select the “optionC” select list value while creating or after creating now if they create any subtask after creating the Story those linked subtask assignee has to chance to reporter of the Story automatically.

if the Story does not have any linked subtask then we don’t require any automation changing assignee

If you did not understand the example please do let me know I will explain more detail.

Thanks,
