How to set a status based on the custom field value present on the transition screen

Question

Hi

We have one requirement on the workflow like, we have three Statuses A, B and C.

From Status A to Status B on the transition screen we have one Radio button field Approved with the values Yes or No, If I select the value Yes then the issue will sits in the status B, if we select No then the issue will sit in the status A. We have the add-ons JSU, JMWE and script Runner. Could you please suggest any solution for this requirement. I am attaching the sample image for the requirement Please find the image.

Thanks in advance.

Using JMWE you have two options:

* use the Transition Issue post-function to trigger a transition from Status A to Status B (you can hide that transition from users using a Hide from users (JMWE app) Condition), using conditional execution to test the value of the radio button, but you first need to change your current transition to stay in status A (that applies to Leo's suggestions as well).
* use a Set Field Value post-function to conditionally reset the status to Status A if the Approved radio button is checked.

Hi @Venkateshwara Rao cherala,

I believe this can be achieved by all 3 plugins you use. I don't have JMWE to check the suitable post-function but for others as below

Using Scriptrunner

1. You can use fast-track transition post-function and add condition to check Approved field value if yes selected transition(B) will be executed

JSU

1. can do the same using Linked transition

2. Link as JQL --> key = {issue.key}

3. you need to precondition(JSU) to validate approved field

Hope this helps

BR,
