How to write a number-customfield in a transition (script-runner)

Question

Hi there

I would like to calculate some number-fields in a post function with a custom script post-function (inline script) from script-runner.

As i heard from other companies that scripted fields slow down the performance, i would like to update the fields with a transition and calculate the summary in the postfunction.

At the end i have to summarize about 10 number-fields. No i try to catch the value from one field an put it in the targetfield.  I get no error, but the targetfield is not updated.

I have search quite a lot, but there must be something with the setCustomFieldValue.

Can anyone help me to find and solve the problem or does anyone have a suggestion how i could solve this task in a better way?

Thanks a lot for your help.

Hello @Tarun Sapra

I've change to the other function. But unfortunatly, i get no content in the field.
Now my code looks like following. Every log-statement is logged out with the correct data. Is there a further way to find out why?

Thanks again for your help.
