Custom fields -> If Custom Field 'A' field = John Smith, then Custom Field 'B' cannot be John Smith

Arne Pulle

Hello!

Pulling my hair out on this one trawling all over @Adaptativst etc. to get an answer

Common problem i feel, but no luck finding Script for Sciptrunner

Two fields in Jira Software, cloud based.. Lets call Field 1 Developer and Field 2 QA. Both are multi select lists.

The logic I need is if Field 1 'Developer' = 'John Smith', then Field 2 'QA' != 'John Smith'

I thought Scriptrunner would be able to solve this?

(Apologies in advance if this is the wrong forum!)

You can try putting the following on the transition between Status 5 and Status 6 as a validator.

cfValues['Developer'] != cfValues['QA']

Note this assumes both fields have the same field type.

Hope this helps

Absolutely the right place to start asking (it might end up as a support call with Adaptavist, but let's start here with the wider audience!)

At what point do you want to enforce this rule?

Arne Pulle

Agree.. i've trawled the Adaptavist site, tried manipulating some Groovy scripts to see if I can make it work, with no luck..

We have a workflow with 7 statuses.. this would need to be enforced between status 5 and status 6.. Failing there, i am happy for the rule to fire if the wrong name is populated, akin to the way Validations fire in Jira Software

Thanks Phil.. Both are multi select fields with names (so yes, the same field type).

i have tested this as well in Sandbox.. Workflow offers you a chance to validate the change using an issue where I know this is an issue and I get 'false' (the right result).

Then I test it against an issue where I know it should be true (ie: developer != QA) and I still get 'False'

As your fields are both multi-select fields with names the solution is a little more complex. As you are potentially comparing multiple names with multiple names.

You need to work out what the logic should be for what is true vs false.

So if Developer contains
Alfie, Brenda, Charlie

and QA contains
Charlie, David, Emily

I would assume that this would be false as Charlie is present in both.

Whereas

Developer contains
Alfie, Brenda, Charlie

and QA contains
David, Emily

Should be true.

I am not in front of my development machine at the moment but here is an outline script to help you do this.

import com.atlassian.jira.component.ComponentAccessor
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.CustomFieldManager

def currentUser = ComponentAccessor.getJiraAuthenticationContext().getLoggedInUser()
CustomFieldManager customFieldManager = ComponentAccessor.getCustomFieldManager()
def developersCF = customFieldManager.getCustomFieldObjectByName("Developer")
def developers = issue.getCustomFieldValue(cfMultiSelectUser)


passCondition = true
//set initial condition to be true and then check each developer in turn to confirm they are not also in the QA field
for (int i = 0; i < developers.size(); i++) {
if (users.get(i) in cfValues['QA']*.value) {
passCondition = false
}
}

return passCondition

For reference for anyone who finds this but only wants single select list comparison the answer is

cfValues['Developer'].value != cfValues['QA'].value
