Scriptrunner behaviour - Prevent Fix Version updates during multiple statuses

Question

I have tried a few methods, but I'm unable to prevent the Fix Version/s field from being edited in about 4 statuses. I've created a Behaviour and tried the following conditions (at different times), but neither are preventing edits to the Fix Version/s field. When : Workflow Step Workflow Step Workflow Step Workflow Step & Except: Workflow Step Workflow Step Workflow Step Workflow Step Workflow Step Workflow Step The Behaviour is mapped to All Issue Types & a few projects. The workflow steps would also span multiple workflows. I have another Behaviour preventing a custom field from being edited by project role, not status. I tried disabling that to see if they were conflicting with each other, but no luck.

Hi @Shannon Bennett,

I have tested below code in my sandbox by adding it as server-side script for fix versions field in behaviour

def fVersions = getFieldById("fixVersions")
def status = underlyingIssue?.getStatus().name
if(status == "To Do"){
    fVersions.setReadOnly(true)
}else{
    fVersions.setReadOnly(false)
}

Hope this helps

BR,

Leo

Behaviours will not work on the "View screen", rather if a field is "affected" by a behaviour and a user tries to edit it, it will direct them to the Edit screen instead where the Behaviour should work.

Could you show us the behaviour implementation -- the settings and conditions?

Could we eliminate this being a bug by setting the fixVersion field read-only at all times, in some sample project? Just to see if it will work regardless of the status.

Hi @Shannon Bennett ,

See if these two links below could help you to achieve your goal:

https://library.adaptavist.com/entity/set-behaviour-read-only

https://scriptrunner.adaptavist.com/5.0.2/jira/recipes/workflow/get-workflow-vars.html

Try to use if-else statements in your Behaviour to set the setReadOnly() method as true or false and determine which status the field can or cannot be edited.

I hope this can help you.
