Difference between today and custom date field

[Himanshu Nanda]

Hi, Requirement - If 'Planned start date' (custom field) is less than two days from now, and 'Env' (custom field) is 'PRD', then only Emergency change category ticket can be created.

I'm writing a JMWE scripted workflow validation to achieve this (not a scripting expert)

if (issue.get("Env") == "PRD")
{ if ((issue.get("Change category") != "Emergency"))
{(issue.get("Planned start date") > new Date() +2)
}}

The problem with this is, that even if Change category is selected as Emergency, it does not allow the ticket creation. What am I doing wrong? Pls help.

Hi Himanshu,

I believe what you want is:

issue.getAsString("Change category") != "Emergency" || issue.getAsString("Env") != "PRD" || issue.get("Planned start date") > new Date() +2

Had to make a slight logical adjustment to your recommendation, but worked like a charm. Thank you!
