After changing workflow unable to modify status on issues

[Justin Vander Ziel]

I created a custom workflow for our project after discovering that someone had modified the underlying workflow of our previous workflow and changed a status. However, now I am unable to change the status of the items in our project. How can I fix this?

Hi Saket!

I'd suggest using the Script Runner add-on, which has a functionality named Scripted Fields. With these, you can create two fields that would take its value based on what's set on another field.

There is extensive documentation on the add-on, the specifics for Scripted Fields can be found here. There are also some good examples of code that you may find useful when writing your own script.

By the way, Script Runner uses Groovy as its programming language, so it's pretty straight-forward.

I'll tag your question with the label monitored by the add-on developer and also lots of other users from the community, so you may find lots of additional help on doing this. 

Cheers!

It is not available for Cloud, unfortunately. :(

As far as I know, JIRA Cloud does not allow customization. But, you can do this if you host a JIRA standalone instance. You can refer the documentation - https://confluence.atlassian.com/display/JIRAKB/How+to+display+a+Field+based+on+another+Field%27s+selection for more informaiton.
