Sum custom fields (e.g. total values from input values from 2 other fields)

Ross Dammann September 13, 2017

Is there a way to aggregate the values from 2 other fields into a new field?

Custom Field1 = $100

Custom Field2 = $200

Custom Field Total = Sum of Custom Field1 and CustomerField2

Custom Field Total would be an autocalculated field. 

How can this be accomplished? Script Runner, Java, Add-on......

Hi Ed,

 Is there a way to do this with JIRA Core Cloud? It looks like the plug in you mentioned is available for server but not cloud. Ideally, I would like to be able to do calculations like the ones Ross mentioned without purchasing an add on. Thank You

yes, you can use Script Runner or the calculated text/number field (add custom field --> advanced) to populate a summed value to another custom field (i.e. Custom Field Total)

Thanks Ed. I don't see that specific custom field "Calculated text/number field" in my list of available fields from add custom field --> advanced.

Sorry about that Ross.  I should have clarified that the calculated text or numeric field is a part of the JIRA Misc Custom Fields plugin (free from Innovalog).  Once you have that option, you would put the sum formula in the description of the field.
