Script Runner - Scripted field display parent issue custom field on sub-task

[AndreH]

Hello,

I have been trying to create a scripted field on a sub-task. This scripted field will display data from the parent issue. This field is a numeric value custom field

Parent Issue - Improvment

Custom Field - DBA Estimate (Numeric)

Sub-Task

Scripted field - Parent DBA Estimate

The script I've created isn't working correctly -

import com.atlassian.jira.issue.Issue;

import com.atlassian.jira.ComponentManager;

import com.atlassian.jira.issue.CustomFieldManager;

import com.atlassian.jira.issue.fields.CustomField;

def abc123 = issue.parentObject.getCustomFieldValue("DBA Estimate");

return abc123;

How do I get the Scripted field to display the numeric value from the parent issue?

Thanks in advance.

Andre

Here's the correct code:

import com.atlassian.jira.issue.Issue;
import com.atlassian.jira.ComponentManager;
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.CustomFieldManager;
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.fields.CustomField;
import com.atlassian.jira.component.ComponentAccessor;
def field = ComponentAccessor.getCustomFieldManager().getCustomFieldObjectByName("DBA Estimate")
def abc123 = issue.parentObject.getCustomFieldValue(field);

return abc123;

Also make sure to set template : Number Field on the scripted field and also set the searcher to Number Searcher
