Jira field calculated based on another field.

I have several Jira issues with assignees. I need a custom field called "Entity", which will set VALUE1 if asigenee equalts name1, name2 and name3, and set VALUE2 if assignee equals name4, name5 and name6. If assignee changes from belonging to VALUE1 to VALUE2, this field should reflect that.

How can I achieve that? thanks

The Script Runner plugin would work well for this.

https://marketplace.atlassian.com/plugins/com.onresolve.jira.groovy.groovyrunner

After installing this plugin you can create a Scripted Field. In this scripted field you would create a groovy script which would dynamically set its value based on the assignee.

Your script might look something like this:

if (issue.getAssignee().getDirectoryId() == "name1" ||
issue.getAssignee().getDirectoryId() == "name2" ||
issue.getAssignee().getDirectoryId() == "name3")
{
	return "VALUE1";
}
else if (issue.getAssignee().getDirectoryId() == "name4" ||
issue.getAssignee().getDirectoryId() == "name5" ||
issue.getAssignee().getDirectoryId() == "name6")
{
	return "VALUE2";
}

This one can send emails on transitions, which I am to use for another project Thanks

This seems to be the simpliest solution, thanks.

Sorry, SIL costs money, that's against my company policy to spend any more money on Atlassian

I don't think you want getDirectoryId(), but the principle is correct.

KPAH

yeah, I figured out

issue.getAssignee().getDisplayName() == "Last, First"

works like a charm.

Thanks again, your input was most helpful. It only took me like 2 hours to figure out you have to set searcher=none for the scripted field to display

Nope, it's free.

Hi @John Bishop , @Radu Dumitriu, I'm trying to use this same logic, but for setting date fields. I'm already using this code to set the date field, based on a single selection (Physical Addresses). But there are two other selections, where I'd like the number of days that populate to be 10 business days. Any thoughts on how to implement that?

I understand that I would need to remove the Conditional Execution and put that into the Groovy Scripting.
