Make field "Read-Only" on create screen based on the other field value (Condition)

jira_admin_cu

Hi Team,

I want to make a field "Read-Only" based on the value of another field. However, the field is completely disabled for other values during creation. Please review the behavior below and let me know if I've missed anything.

The fields are : Need By Date, Requester Dept.

The "Need By Date" should be read-only upon creation when the "Requester Dept." has specific values. I have added this behavior using the "Requester Dept." field.

Please check the attached screenshots for your refence.

 

import com.onresolve.jira.groovy.user.FieldBehaviours

import groovy.transform.BaseScript

 

@BaseScript FieldBehaviours fieldBehaviours

def dateField = getFieldByName("Need By Date")

def rdField = getFieldByName("Requester Dept.")

def rdValue = rdField.getValue()

if ((getActionName() in ["Create Issue", "Create"]) && (rdValue == "APAC Fulfillment Implementation" || "APAC Support" || "APAC System Automation Implementation"))

{

    dateField.setReadOnly(true)

     

}

else

{

    dateField.setReadOnly(false)

    

}

Hi @jira_admin_cu

For your Behaviour to work as expected, you need to change your code to something like this:-

import com.onresolve.jira.groovy.user.FieldBehaviours
import groovy.transform.BaseScript

@BaseScript FieldBehaviours behaviours
def sampleList = getFieldById(fieldChanged)
def sampleListValue = sampleList.value.toString()

def sampleDate = getFieldByName('Sample Date')
sampleDate.readOnly = false

if (!underlyingIssue && sampleListValue == 'Option1') {
    sampleDate.readOnly = true
}

Please note that the sample working code above is not 100% exact to your environment. Hence you must make the required modifications.

Below is a screenshot of the Behaviour configuration:-

Whit the Server-Side Behaviour configuration above, when a new Issue is being created, if Option1 is selected from the Sample List, as expected, the Date field will be set to read-only. If any other option is selected from the list, as expected the Date Field will be editable.

I hope this helps to solve your question. :-)

I am looking forward to your feedback.

Thank you and Kind regards,
Ram
