First time using Script Field - GroovyRunner - Can't seem to get the right syntax

Hi,

I'm not a programmer, so hoping someone can help me. I'm trying to use a scripted field to take the value of our custom field "Department" and return the GL Code for it. This is what I put in. It doesn't seem to break anything, but when I try to preview it with an issue that has Department = Global, It just shows nothing. HELP.

def Department = getCustomFieldValue("Department")
def DeptCode
if (Department == "Global") {DeptCode = "1001"}
else if (Department == "Client Services") { DeptCode = "1002"}
return DeptCode

Does this issue has the Department field set ?

Alsto try first this piece of code to see what value is returned:

def Department = getCustomFieldValue("Department")
return Department

What is the type of the Department custom field ? Is it text field or some other ?

Hi,

I added that in and then tried preview and this is what I got:

Global

The indexer for this field expects a java.lang.String but the script returned a com.atlassian.jira.issue.customfields.option.LazyLoadedOption - this will cause problems.

So it did read the custom field Department (which is a single select field).

So then change the script as follows:

def Department = getCustomFieldValue("Department").value
def DeptCode
if (Department == "Global") {DeptCode = "1001"}
else if (Department == "Client Services") { DeptCode = "1002"}
return DeptCode
