How to add default resolution field for only one project while other projects are using same screen?

Question

Scenario:

When i close an issue i get Fixed as Default but i want to Change it to done for only one Project. the Transition is using a screen which is also being used by multiple other Projects but i just want to set Resolution field to Done as Default for only one Project without effecting others.

Steps i have Performed:

Created a Postfunction to set Resolution field to done(for that Transition in the workflow of that particular Project and nothing has changed(this workflow is being using by only this Project but the screen is shared by others as well). Results after adding Postfunction: I still see it as Fixed in the Transition screen.

Question:

Wont adding a Postfunction work if there are different Default Settings at global Level for These Standard Custon Fields in JIRA?

After trying various Things i found that adding property in the workflow Transition (Property= jira.field.resolution.include  and property key is the ID number of the Resolution field(which i got it by hovering the mouse over edit in the issues>Attributs>resolutions>respectivefiled for example done)) will set the Default Resolution field value. I have given the list of all the fields I need and excluded just one ID number (of the Default value set at global level). Of Course, with this change the user can not choose the Default value(specified in the System field at global Level). just a note: this Change does not effect other Projects using the same reolution screen.

any more suggestions are always welcome and any corrections as well.

Hi Tarun,

Thank you for the Reply. The Transition screen here is being used by 7 issuetypes and it is necessary to have a screen as there are other custom fields like comments, log work for example. One clarification here, i want done as Default but at the same time the user has to be able to choose from other Options. so basically when the screen Pops up it Shows done in the Resolution field but i shoulc be able to choose other Options from the drop down.

Hope i made it clear :)

Thank you

Hello @Sindhu Bardipur

I think there is some confusion here, basically you in a workflow transition you can add a transition which contains the resolution field so that users can choose the resolution. But if you want to set a certain resolution value by default of a specific issueTYpe mapped to a specific workflow then you don't need  a transition screen you can just add the resolution value in the post-function of the transition and that should be set always as the final value irrespective of what user selects in transition screen and thus when you have the post-function to set the resolution value then you don't need the transition screen.
