Hi @Donna Benton,

 

Assuming one of the fields you mentioned is going to represente 100% and the other x%, you can build an automation similar to this:

For the variable you should use the following smart value: 

{{#=}}{{issue.customfield_11111}} / {{issue.customfield_22222}} * 100{{/}}
  • {{issue.customfield_11111}} → Numerator (x%)

  • {{issue.customfield_22222}} → Denominator (100%)

 

If you want to add the two field values together and then check if the sum is equal to or greater than 80%, the automtion would be the same, but the smart value for the variable would be:

{{#=}}{{issue.customfield_11111}} + {{issue.customfield_22222}}{{/}}

 

I hope I was able to help!

Kind regards,

Ana
