// Get the issue//def issue = issue
// Get the remaining estimate in secondsdef result = 0
// Perform the calculationsdef issueEstimate = issue.originalEstimateif (issueEstimate) {result = issueEstimate * 3600def user = ComponentAccessor.getJiraAuthenticationContext().getLoggedInUser()
// Set the result to a custom field (change 'customFieldName' to your custom field name)def customFieldName = "Estimate (used for Kiplot Automation)"def customFieldManager = ComponentAccessor.getCustomFieldManager()def customField = customFieldManager.getCustomFieldObjectByName(customFieldName)issue.setCustomFieldValue(customField, result)}if (customField) {    issue.setCustomFieldValue(customField, result)}
return resultPlease help me on this.Thanks,Sai

Hello and Welcome to the Atlassian Community,

I can see two things happening here in the code:

issue.setCustomFieldValue(customField, result)

And

return result

As I understand it this is code for a scripted field? If so only he return statement sets the value on this scripted field.

What are you trying to do? What does not work as expected?
