Allow workflow transition only if a date is reached

[Udo Brand]

We have a transition that should be only allowed when the value of a customfield (date picker) is reached.

I have not seen a condition I could use. There is a validator which compares dates, but how would I get the current date to compare my customfield with?

Do you have some suggestion?

Thanks,

Udo

i bet the groovy script runner could help.

[Renjith Pillai]

Yes, just use the created date in the code for the condition in the Workflow

[Udo Brand]

We have no groovy script runner installed (yet). I'm not sure if I can convince the IT Department to install it. Is there no other way?

[C. Faysal]

No not out of the box with jira. As you mentioned workflow editing i assume you have admin access. Thats all you need to install plugins

[Udo Brand]

Yes, I have admin access, but I have an agreement with the 'real' admins not to install plugins without their approval.
