Date automatically set

[Käthe Crautwickel]

Dear all,
my name is Ed and I'm new here. I'm working with Jira since 2 Weeks and I have the necessity to set an Target End date automatically if the status changes to OPEN

1. if the calendar week is not eventhen set Target End to next Thuresday else set Target End to Thursday one week later than next week.

Possible???

If I'm right Jira 9.4.3 and Jira Server

The problem is solved. I set the date in each case to now() plus 10 Business days.

Sorry, I'm back. The problem is not realy solved.
First I decribe what I want and then my solution approch.
what I need is:is the actual calendar week even (2,4,6,8) or odd (1,3,5,7) and the actual day of the week (MON, FRI)

In case that it is even and the calendar day is not FRI I want to set due date to THU of next week otherwise I want to sent due date to THU of this week

If

{{now.weekofyear()%2 == 0}} and {{ dayofweek(current date()).==.(“FRI”}}

then

{{now.withNextDayOfWeek("THU").jiradate()}}

Else

{{now.with nextdayofweek(“SUN”).plusdays(1).withnextdayofweek(“THU”).jiradate()}}

How exactly is that not working? Provide examples of the dates used in each step and the results.

[Käthe Crautwickel]

Trudy,
thanks for your answer. The error is something like this:  "Error in Condition, wrong expression.Else executed".

I beleve that the expression dayoftheweek doesn't exists. Today I'm out of the office .

Can you show us screen images that show the details of each of those steps in the Automation Rule?

[Käthe Crautwickel]

Unfortunately not because I'm not a Jira Admin and I don
t have the permission. The error was shown during an Admin has created the rule. I have to wait until the Admin will be available the reproduce the error

Hello @Käthe Crautwickel 

Welcome to the Atlassian community!

Are you working with Jira Cloud or Jira Server/Data Center?

If your Jira URL is https://<something>.atlassian.net then you are working with Jira Cloud.

If you are working with Jira Server or Jira Data Center, what version are you using? That information will show at the bottom of most screens.

What do you mean by the calendar week being "even"?

[Käthe Crautwickel]

even =cw  2 4 6 8 10
odd = cw 1 3 5 7 9

[Trudy Claspill]

Do you mean the first, seconds, third, etc. calendar week of the year?

Can you provide answers for the other questions I asked also, please?
