How to create a field that is defined as a calculation

[Holly Rademacher]

Is it possible to have a field that is calculation based on the number of days the work item has been opened and the severity?  Number of days opened * a predefined value based on severity.

For example -  If the work item has  been opened for 10 days it would show the following values based on the severity of the work item:

Sev 1 (number of days opened * 10)  = 100  

Sev 2  (number of days opened * 8) = 80 

Sev 3 (number of days opened * 6) = 60 

Sev 4 (number of days opened * 4) = 40 

Thank you - Holly

Hi @Holly Rademacher 

Atlassian is currently building a feature for calculated, custom fields.  You may watch / vote for that item to see progress here: https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/JRACLOUD-61966

Until that is available, you could...

• Use two automation rules (one triggered on work item create and another on source field changes) to calculate the value
• Investigate any Atlassian marketplace apps which provided scripted / calculated fields

If you need more suggestions on creating the the automation rules, please let the community know.  Thanks!

Kind regards,
Bill
