Remaining estimate required if sprint value is changed

[Arturs Kalnins]

Hi! Is it possible to make Remaining field to become mandatory if sprint field changes to current sprint? 

We are also using script runner (cloud) so if that could help i would appreciate it a lot!

Hi @Arturs Kalnins - If you mean that as soon as the issue is added to sprint that the user is prompted to update the Remaining field, the short answer is no.

However, you could do something with automation that would trigger when the sprint field is changed and flag the issue.  Then you can build validators in your workflow that prevent transitioning the issue while it is flagged. 

The automation would look something like this:

• TRIGGER: Field Value Changed (Sprint)
• CONDITION: JQL
  • Key = {{issue}} AND sprint in openSprints()
• CONDITION: Remaining IS EMPTY
• ACTION: Edit Issue
  • Flag = Impediment

From there you could set a second automation that triggers when the Remaining field is populated to unflag the issue.
