Conditions on status change

Question

Hi,

We would like to allow status change only if some mandatory fields are filled in, and to deny change if that fields are empty.

Do you know any possibility how to do this?
I read about conditions on status transactions in JIRA documentation, but there is written only about specific kind of conditions I can set on.

Thank

Marek Kakos

Hi @Marek Kákoš ,

in order to do that you should use field manadatory validator in order to verify if those fields are filled during transition.

If you want to show or not transition, you should use a scripted validator using script runner plugin.

Hope this helps,

Fabio

Hi @Marek Kákoš

You can create a Value Field workflow condition (the very last option in the list of conditions) which will only display the transition if a specific field has a certain value, or a value at all.

In the example below, I am using the condition to only show a transition if the recordID field is not empty. You can add multiple of these conditions for other fields which are required to display the transition.

Hope this helps!

Hi @Marek Kákoš ,

running Server, you'll need an additional workflow app that provides a 'Fields required' condition or validator (usually they provide both then) - see https://marketplace.atlassian.com/search?category=Workflow&product=jira

As an example, Jira Workflow Toolbox being one of them has a generic 'Fields required or changed' validator - see https://apps.decadis.net/display/JWTSDC/Fields+required+or+changed

Disclaimer: I'm part of the behind the aforementioned app.
