Update End Date by Start Date and original Estimate

[Ansar Rezaei]

Hi

I want to Update Custom end Date Field with this value:

end date = start date + original estimate

I think and check different methods and the last one is to use "Execute a ScriptRunner script" in Automation for Jira Plugin.  I use the server version of Jira:

Here my code, I'm new to groovy, Please help me to complete it:

import com.atlassian.jira.component.ComponentAccessor
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.Issue
import java.sql.Timestamp
import java.time.DayOfWeek
import java.text.SimpleDateFormat;
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.MutableIssue
import com.atlassian.jira.event.type.EventDispatchOption


def myissue = issue as Issue

// Set the logging leve to DEBUG
import org.apache.log4j.Level
log.setLevel(Level.DEBUG)

Issue issueKey = issue
def id=issueKey.getId()

// Get access to the Custom Field Manager
def customFieldManager = ComponentAccessor.getCustomFieldManager();
def issueManager = ComponentAccessor.getIssueManager()
def user = ComponentAccessor.getJiraAuthenticationContext().getLoggedInUser()

// Get the required custom field values
def StartDate = customFieldManager.getCustomFieldObjects(issue).find {it.name == 'Start Date'}
def EndDate = customFieldManager.getCustomFieldObjects(issue).find {it.name == 'End Date'}
def startDateVal = StartDate.getValue(issue)
def endDateVal = EndDate.getValue(issue)
def ost = issue.getOriginalEstimate()
def rst = issue.getEstimate()

def updated = myissue.getUpdated()

myissue.setCustomFieldValue(EndDate, new Timestamp(startDateVal-ost).Date)

hey @Ansar Rezaei 

We have recently published a kb article to add Orginal estimate to a date field using Automation for Jira. Hope this helps :)

I found the answer:

import com.atlassian.jira.component.ComponentAccessor
import com.atlassian.jira.event.type.EventDispatchOption
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.IssueInputParameters
import org.apache.log4j.Logger
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.util.DefaultIssueChangeHolder
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.ModifiedValue

def mylog = Logger.getLogger("com.onresolve.jira.groovy")

def userManager = ComponentAccessor.getUserManager()
def customField = ComponentAccessor.getCustomFieldManager().getCustomFieldObject(10403)
def issueManager = ComponentAccessor.getIssueManager()
def user = userManager.getUserByName("Jira Administrator")
def startdate = ComponentAccessor.getCustomFieldManager().getCustomFieldObject("customfield_10402");
def startdatevalue = issue.getCustomFieldValue(startdate) as Date
def oestimate = issue.getOriginalEstimate()/(3600*8) as int
def customFieldValue = startdatevalue + oestimate

def customFieldOldValue = issue.getCustomFieldValue(customField)
customField.updateValue(null, issue, new ModifiedValue(customFieldOldValue, customFieldValue), new DefaultIssueChangeHolder())
