Execute the function before the transition

Denis Shestov

Hi all! 

Please help me with my case:

(comment: i have add-ons JSU)

I want to be able to change the assignee, but (!) if assignee has been changed - i need to get the value of the field of the current assignee. 

What i tried to do:

i create 2 transitions.

In first transition, i make a post-function that copies the value current assignee to custom field (his name: "First assignee" )

https://yadi.sk/i/kSJntfgA3PNXN8

In second transition i wanted to open screen ( https://yadi.sk/i/c_wffzl33PNY9a ), where have field Assignee (for change assignee), but screen not opened.

How can i implement?

maybe create another ("new assignee") custom field? 

Steps: 

1. on screen in transition: custom field, for to word new assignee

post function:

2. copy current assignee to custom field "First assignee"

3. copy custom field "new assignee" - to current assignee

m?

Thanks for all = )

I could realize this function with help addon: 

Jira Misc Workflow Extensions

Postfunction name: 

Copy value from field to field (JMWE add-on)

Copy the value(s) of one field to another field. Can copy the value of the field before it was changed on the transition's screen.
