How can add I get my existing calculation to produce a rounded percentage all in one rule?

Mireya Cintora

Objective: I have an existing rule that produces a decimal proportion, BUT I need it to produce the percentage and round it to the nearest whole number. This is my current rule: 

Attempts:

I tried changing the smart value to this {{issue.OrigAllowed.format(".##")}} just to round it but it did not work. So I did not even attempt to covering it to a percentage. Which I don't know if I can even do that or would that have to be a separate rule?

Hi @Mireya Cintora, if I understand your question correctly you might try something like shown in this formula:

Which gives this result:

So, for your rule you need to apply smart values for your custom fields into the ROUND() function, and further define the correct percentage formula. Something like this might work:

{{#=}}ROUND({{customfield_10455}} / {{customfield_10421}} * 100,0){{/}}

The zero marked in yellow below indicates the precission, i.e. how many decimals to apply to the result.

You don't need to create a varibale for this, apply to your code directly into the And: Edit issue fields step and set "Original Allowed".

The ROUND() functioin is described on this page Jira smart values - math expressions | Automation for Jira Cloud and Data Center | Atlassian Documentation.
