Use Behaviours to Format Date Fields

We currently have a project that is using several date fields and we have a corresponding Script Field for each one to display it in a MM/DD/YYYY format. Could we accomplish this using a single Behaviour Rule? We're not really interested in storing the format, just displaying it. Also, the format would need to be retained if an export/email was done.

Behaviours don't do anything on the view issue screen.

Hi Chris,

You should format the date needed using Java Simple Date Format. I have an example of how this can be done in the following answer: https://answers.atlassian.com/questions/37044719.

I hope this helps.
