Groovy Post Function Script needs to be executed twice for result

Question

Hi All,

I have a workflow button "In progress" which helps me to move forward in  the ticket life cycle.

In the workflow post function: I want 2 things to happen:

1) Update a Select list based on a condition: I am using below script for this:

cf.updateValue(null, issue, new ModifiedValue(issue.getCustomFieldValue(cf), option), changeHolder);

2) Since I am using 5 select lists, based on their values, i need to move ticket to a particular stage in workflow, say "Intermediate". I  am using the below script for this:

WorkflowTransitionUtil workflowTransitionUtil = JiraUtils.loadComponent(WorkflowTransitionUtilImpl.class);
workflowTransitionUtil.setIssue((MutableIssue)issue);
workflowTransitionUtil.setUserkey(currentUser.getKey());

workflowTransitionUtil.setAction(301);
if (workflowTransitionUtil.validate().getErrorMessages().size() == 0)
{
workflowTransitionUtil.progress();
}

2 scripts in my post function, however to execute them both, I need to press "In progress" button twice in my Ticket view window.

Am i missing something ? is there  way to combine both the scripts to 1 to avoid pressing the button twice?

Please help

That is not what your original question asked.

You can transition other issues in a post-function, you don't need the fast-track - that is only for the current function.

Thanks @Nic Brough -Adaptavist-.

But with the help of Fast Track Transition an issue, can the transition for subtasks also be made i.e.

based on the value of 5 Select lists(which are updated via post function in the parent), if subtask needs to move to stage A or B or C?

Use Scriptrunner's "fast track transition" function.  This moves an issue on without the horror of trying to do a transition inside a transition inside a transition inside a transition  inside a transition  inside a transition  inside a transition ...
