How do I automatically populate a read only field when another field is empty

[Whenrick Rodney]

I am creating a form and I need to conditionally switch a set value on a field if another field is empty.

What is your configuration for the "ConfiForm Rules for Definition" macro?

May be this one will help - https://wiki.vertuna.com/display/TEST/Form+with+default+values+set+by+Field+def+rules+and+by+registration+control

I have a Read-only field:

The field should populate with "some message" when another field is not empty

Current Macro Setting:

Field Name (or Expression) = Blank

Condition = fieldName:[empty]

Action to execute *= "I'm trying to set the value of a field"

What should my Rule Definition Macro look like?

Field name =

Condition =

Action to execute* =

Message to show when validation rule matches =

Validation rule =

Field name = fieldName

Condition = !fieldName:[empty]

Action to execute* = Set Value

Parameters to set: fieldYouWantToSet=Value

Screenshots from the editor (simple form with 2 fields: fieldName and fieldYouWantToSet)

you can use some addons like automation for jira or scriptrunner, maybe issue edit postfunction is also possible

Thanks, Alexander. I'd like to move in the direction of using the ConfiForm Rules for Definition' Macro. I feel like I'm not constructing my rules correctly..
