Formula expression logic and operators

Hi, I've just discovered the JPD Beta and am already sold!

However I'm looking to do something that probably isn't possible yet in the Beta, but hoping the community can help or the someone can confirm if what I'm looking is on the feature roadmap. Also JPD Automation doesn't appear to work for me at the moment so haven't delved in to that area yet to see if I can do what I want.

I'm utilising the Formula Field, and writing a custom expression, however I want to be clever with how the formula is calculated based on the value of another field. In simple terms I want to use IF..ELSE logic in the expression (or the ternary JavaScript style IF..? :) to test a variable:

IF (a == true)
    {Value} * {Effort}
ELSE
    {Value} / {Effort}

As mentioned I can't access the JPD Automation, so this may be possible using the features in there, but it would be really cool to have logic and operators in the formula field expression to get creative with that field.

Thanks for reporting this! We've managed to reproduce the problem and fix it. It should get to production tomorrow or so.

Hi,
Got a similar issue, but with the Linked Issues Count field to show in the backlog. The value is shown for some Issues but for other, in thesame board, of the same issue type, it is not.

The Linked Issue Count has been added to all issue type screens  andd it is not marked as Hidden in the field configuration.

Any ideas anyone?

Hi @Matt Griffin 

I did test this, and found the same in both the timeline view, and the board view.

It worked fine in the list view though.

Strange!
