Hi,

What is the code for setting a string value (text field) into "Fix version/s" (Version Picker)?

this String exists in the versions list.

thanks

Are the subtasks created by some sort of existing automation? If so, can you share what you have so far?

Or are these manual subtasks created by the user via the UI and you only need to automate the date field?

If so, do the parent task and the sub-task share the same workflow? Or are they different workflows?

You should be able to copy the date from the parent in a postFunction on the Create transition for the sub-task workflow.

If you have a recent version of scriptrunner, you don't even need a script. You can just use the "copy field values" feature.  Never mind that ... it won't work because of your need to have 5 days before

If you really want to use a script, it would look like this

import com.atlassian.jira.component.ComponentAccessor
if(issue.parent){
   def originalDueDateCf = ComponentAccessor.customFieldManager.getCustomFieldObjectsByName('Original due date')[0]
   def dueDateCf = ComponentAccessor.customFieldManager.getCustomFieldObjectsByName('Need By date')[0]
   def originalDueDate = issue.parent.getCustomFieldValue(originalDueDateCf )
   if(originalDueDate ){
      issue.setCustomFieldValue(dueDateCf, originalDueDate-5)
   }
}

Try using "parentObject" instead of parent.

def originalDueDate = issue.parentObject.getCustomFieldValue(originalDueDateCf )
