scriptrunner post function won't trigger

[Matt Parks]

I have a basic understanding of why the function won't trigger, but I'm wondering if anyone can provide a workaround.

I have two different workflows: one for Epics and another for Requirements that exist as issues with Epics.

In the Requirements workflow, I have added a Linked Transition (JSU) post function on the transition to the Done status that will trigger a specific transition on its Epic when all of its siblings are in the Done status. Basically, whenever all issues within the Epic are Done, move the Epic to a Ready to Test status. I have confirmed that, on its own, this post function executes properly.

However, I have added a ScriptRunner workflow function on the transition in the Epic workflow that is being updated by the Linked Transition post function I mentioned above. This function checks a JQL query and requires that all issues within the Epic are in the Done status in order for the transition to be allowed. I have confirmed that this condition works properly on its own.

My problem is that, once I add the condition to the Epic workflow, the Linked Transition post function no longer executes. My guess is that there is a timing issue where the Epic isn't fully aware that the last issue in the Epic has transitioned to Done status, so it doesn't allow the transition to execute. Afterwards, I can manually transition the Epic to the Ready to Test status.

I have moved the Linked Transition post function all the way to the bottom of the list of post functions (after the issue is stored in the DB and re-indexed), but this doesn't have any effect. Is there a way that I can notify the Epic that all of its children are in Done status while the final child is transitioning to the Done status so the condition is met?

Hi @Berry Kersten ,

You can try using 

com.atlassian.jira.jira-view-issue-plugin:datesmodule

com.atlassian.jira.jira-view-issue-plugin:peoplemodule

Hi @Berry Kersten  ,

You can use script fragments to hide UI elements.

https://scriptrunner.adaptavist.com/6.6.0/jira/fragments/HideUIElement.html

Go to Admin → Script Fragments, and select Hide system or plugin UI element  and select the project and UI elements that you would like to hide.

Hi @Niranjan great, thanks! Found it :-)

One more question, I don't see script fragments for the People and Dates panel.

Is it possible to add them manually that you know of?

Hi Berry,
Thanks a lot for your reply.
I tried exactly the same on a preProd instance. Then stop/start Jira. It doesn't work. Reboot the server, and it is the same.
We use Jira Server V8.5.5.

Do you think it is a problem ?

I'm not a Groovy guru, but in the condition, can you try !=  instead of == ?

Is there also a way to disable the issue export button can't find the element on the fragment
