Priority field that can be automatically populated based on other 2 fields Severity and Frequency

[Lakshmi S]

Hi All,

I would like to automatically change the priority field based on the combination of information from the Severity and Frequency fields?  

For example if Issue Severity is "1-High" and Issue Frequency is "2 -Medium" , the priority would be "Major".  I am new to groovy script. can anyone help me this how to write it in grrovy script ? 

Issue Severity 

• 1 - Critical
• 2 - High
• 3 - Medium
• 4 - Low

Issue Frequency

• 1 - High
• 2 - Medium
• 3 - Low
• 4 - Rare

Hi Lakshimi S,

I created some time ago an example of a scripted field (see priorityMatrix.groovy) that can serve as a base for what are you triying to achieve.

In your case you will create either a postfunction or a script listener and setup the issue priority instead of returning a value.

Hope this helps,

Regards

Thank you so much for your quick reply @Jack Nolddor _Sweet Bananas_  , here the "priority" field is system field, not a text field

I know, you must use my script as a base to make yours.

You should use issue.setPriorityId() method instead of returning a value as in mine.
