Mapping a custom field (Date) to a custom field (Date) with additional X days in Elements Copy & Syn

[Thảo Nguyễn]

Hi all,

I'm working on Elements Copy & Sync. I need to map a customfield Due Date (Date Picker) = Customfield_12500 (Date Picker)+ 3 days.

As the document (https://doc.elements-apps.com/elements-copy-and-sync/3.0/fields-mappings/configuring-local-and-remote-jira-fields-mapping/issue-and-current-user-velocity-variables), I Get Value of Customfield_12500, Convert value to Date format and then I addDays as picture.

But It has not been working. 

Please give me some advices or solutions to resolve this problem.

Thank you so much!

Hi Thao

If the field customfield_12500 is a Jira Date Picker field, and you need to map it to itself using the advanced field mapping and some Velocity, then I'm afraid this is not possible, I'm sorry. There's an existing change request for that need CS-1558

For now, in the advanced mapping, and for Jira Date Picker fields, you can map the field to a system field

$dateResolver.addDays($issue.created, "3")

As mentioned before, this is possible because I used a system field in the advanced mapping and not a Jira Date Picker to Jira Date picker mapping.

Sure, field to field mapping is always possible.

Good luck and don't hesitate to reach out if you have further questions
