Setting a Customfield value in ScriptRunner Behaviour

[Peter Ellis]

We are using a ScriptRunner Behaviour to ensure there is a default value in a single choice select list. We are using this method as the form has a lot of other validation on it and this particular select field is also only displayed based on another field value.

We have tried both examples below but neither work, any suggestions?  

def textField5 = getFieldById("customfield_17221")
def selectListValue = selectList.getValue()

if (selectListValue == "Partner") {

getFieldById("customfield_17221").setFormValue("ITL3")
textField5.setFormValue("ITL3")

}

Hi @Peter Ellis ,

I couldn't understand what you try to achieve with that script. You read the value from customfield_17221, than set the same customfield value with ITL3.

The variations of what has been tried,

def textField5 = getFieldById("IT Level")
def selectListValue = selectList.getValue()

if (selectListValue == "Partner") {

textField5.setFormValue("ITL3")

}

and

def textField5 = getFieldById("customfield_17221")
def selectListValue = selectList.getValue()

if (selectListValue == "Partner") {

getFieldById("customfield_17221").setFormValue("ITL3")

}

Following script may help if you would like to set another field based on the origin field value. 

def firstField = getFieldById("customfield_17221")
def secondField = getFieldById("customfield_17222")

String firstFieldVal = firstField.getValue()

if (firstFieldVal.equals("Partner")) {
  secondField.setFormValue(10000) // Ex option of ITL3
} else {
  secondField.setFormValue(null)
}

Brilliant, that worked!! Many thanks :-)

You are welcome @Peter Ellis , glad to hear that :)

What do you mean by "doesn't work"? Does the code execute and not update the field? Does it throw an error? What type of data is contained in the field (free text, number, date, preset options, etc.)?

[Peter Ellis]

The code executes but does not update the field. No errors are thrown up and both fields are preset options....
