How to define a condition for a 'later' date (of two fields)

[Martin Mintál]

Hi. We use a field called 'Calculated Date/Time'. This field should display one of the following values:

<!-- @@Formula: issue.get("updated") -->

<!-- @@Formula: issue.get("customfield_10100") -->

Always the bigger one. So if 'updated' is a later date, than the value of this field should be displayed (in the 'Calculated Date/Time' etc... you get the point. So the question is, how to create a condition which would display only the 'later' date. Thank you very much for your help.

You might want to try something like:

if (issue.get("customfield_10100") == null && issue.get("updated") == null) return null;
if (issue.get("customfield_10100") == null) return issue.get("updated");
if (issue.get("updated") == null) return issue.get("customfield_10100");
if (issue.get("customfield_10100").getTime() > issue.get("updated").getTime())
  return issue.get("customfield_10100");
else
  return issue.get("updated");
