JIRA custom statuses

alina_b January 21, 2021

Has JIRA an oppurtunity of automatical transition between custom statuses depending on date? For example, I have an issue in the "status 1" and after being in this status for 2 weeks I want this issue to pass in the next "status 2 " automatically. Is it possible? If yes, how can I do it? Or can I implment it with  a help of jira applications that are in Jira Market Place?

@alina_b ,

It can definitely be done by using the ScriptRunner add-on Jobs feature.

I would love to code this for you but I don't have a server instance xD

Here's the pseudo-code:

  1. Create a JQL query search for a specific status
  2. Get the result of the JQL and check the date the issue was transitioned from the baseline status  for each issue
  3. Calculate if it can be transitioned to another issue based on the parameter above
  4. Optimize the status updates by updating them by batch

I'm pretty sure there are other add-ons that can do this but for flexibility I prefer SR.

At the top of my mind Automation for Jira can do this but to a certain extent (I could be wrong).

Thank you very much! I'll try to do it using the ScriptRunner.
