Custom field(Scripted field) value is not showing up in the change History

[Vijay Sv]

Custom field(Scripted field) value is not showing up in the change History.

Below is my Script:

ComponentManager componentManager = ComponentManager.getInstance()

CustomFieldManager customFieldManager = componentManager.getCustomFieldManager()
Date versionDate = null;
String sqtr="";
MutableIssue myIssue = issue;
def versions = myIssue.getFixVersions();
CustomField approveFixDateField = customFieldManager.getCustomFieldObjectByName("Approved for Fix Date");
Object approveFixDate = approveFixDateField.getValue(issue);

for(version in versions){
if (version!=null){
versionDate = version.getReleaseDate();
}
}
if((versions == null) || (versions.size() <= 0)) {
CustomField origDept = customFieldManager.getCustomFieldObject("customfield_12189");
String origValue = origDept.getValue(issue).toString();
CustomField severity = customFieldManager.getCustomFieldObject("customfield_12356");
String severityValue = severity.getValue(issue).toString();

if ((approveFixDate != null) && (origValue.equals("Customer")) && (severityValue.equals("S2") || severityValue.equals("S3"))){

def dt = issue.getCreated();
int mm;
int yr;
String cqtr;

if(severityValue=="S2"){
def ms = dt.getTime()+10368000000;
def ms1 = approveFixDate.getTime()+7776000000;
if (ms > ms1)
{
def ts = new Timestamp(dt.getTime()+10368000000);
mm = ts.month +1;
yr = ts.year+1900;
}
else
{
def ts = new Timestamp(approveFixDate.getTime()+7776000000);
mm = ts.month +1;
yr = ts.year+1900;
}
}
if(severityValue=="S3"){
def ms = dt.getTime()+23328000000;
def ms1 = approveFixDate.getTime()+15552000000;
if (ms > ms1)
{
def ts = new Timestamp(dt.getTime()+23328000000);
mm = ts.month +1;
yr = ts.year+1900;
}
else
{
def ts = new Timestamp(approveFixDate.getTime()+15552000000);
mm = ts.month +1;
yr = ts.year+1900;
}

}

if(mm >=1 && mm <=3)
cqtr="Q1";
else if(mm >=4 && mm <=6)
cqtr="Q2";
else if(mm >=7 && mm <=9)
cqtr="Q3";
else if(mm >=10 && mm <=12)
cqtr="Q4";
return yr + " " +cqtr;
}
}

else if( (approveFixDate!=null) && (versionDate != null) ){
Date today = new Date();
if (versionDate.minus(today)>=30){
if(versionDate.month >=0 && versionDate.month <=2)
sqtr="CQ1";
else if(versionDate.month >=3 && versionDate.month <=5)
sqtr="CQ2";
else if(versionDate.month >=6 && versionDate.month <=8)
sqtr="CQ3";
else if(versionDate.month >=9 && versionDate.month <=11)
sqtr="CQ4";
return versionDate[Calendar.YEAR] + " " +sqtr;
}
else if (versionDate.minus(today)<30)
{
String newDate = versionDate.format('MMM');
return versionDate[Calendar.YEAR]+ " "+newDate;
}


}

else
return null;

I will be glad if any one can guide me right direction.

Thanks,

Scripted fields do not hold data, so there's no history for them.  If you want them to have a history, you need to do the logic in a post function or listener and actively store the results in a standard custom field.
