What does "Set Original Estimation (Power Utilities)" mean?

Jason Chayer

I understand there is language tied to this post function, however, what does it mean when it states it copies the value from the custom field to the Original Estimate?

Let's say the custom field is T-Shirt size, do I choose the value of each size, and then once that is chosen, that pre-determined value is then copied to the Original Estimate?

Hi @Jason Chayer ,

You can achieve your desired result through JSU.

- kindly try adding a post function "Precondition: Value Field (JSU)"
eg:
1.1.jpg

- then add another post function below it "Update Any Issue Field (JSU)"
eg:
1.2.jpg

similarly you can add more conditions based on your requirement.

it should look something like below, please check the sequence of their arrangement.

eg:

Let me know if it helped

Hello @Jason Chayer

The built in Original Estimate field is a time duration field. If your post function is trying to copy a value from another field into Original Estimate, that data in the source field must also be a time duration estimate.

Jason Chayer

@Trudy P Claspill could I set my source field data = a time duration estimate? Somehow map that if I enter S, then that time duration is 2 days. Or M might equal 4 days.

I don't think that native Jira Server Workflow Post Function functionality supports that. It may require a third party app.

If you have the Automation for Jira app, which is free from Atlassian, you might be able to do that with an Automation Rule.

Are you using Jira Server or Jira Data Center? And what version are you using? A4J is automatically included in Jira DC 9.0 and higher. You can manually install it on lower versions. For Jira Server there is a lesser featured version - Automation for Jira Server Lite - which can be installed manually.

Jason Chayer

I have Automation, I just need to run the update. I was hoping to not have to and just do this natively with a post function.

Thanks for the response.
