Based on the references online, I have come up with this Groovy Script. I have a custom field called 'Expected Start Date' which is a required field filled in by the Jira user. Based on this Start Date, I have written a post function Groovy script that is used to update another custom field in Jira 'Ship Date' by calculating 3 business days prior to Expected Start Date. When I run the Groovy script from Script Runner, I see the following error. Appreciate your help.

Jira date fields typically accept java.util.date or java.sql.timestamp objects or calendar.
The format of date being displayed on UI is configured in administaration settings.
I suggest to try throw either of the three to the field and see what sticks :)
Edit:
I actually tried myself as I encountered same question in my development
Custom fields of types Date and Datetime accept java.util.date objects/
Here is the code that I tested in Scripted field that works :
import java.util.* import java.sql.Timestamp import com.atlassian.jira.ComponentManager import com.atlassian.jira.issue.CustomFieldManager def customFieldManager = ComponentManager.getInstance().getCustomFieldManager() def dt = new Date() //now def date = new Date(0) //1970 def ts = new Timestamp(dt.getTime()) //this will work for built-in field DueDate! def cf_date = customFieldManager.getCustomFieldObjectByName("cf_date") //alright! I know it's a stupid name for CF :) def cf_datetime = customFieldManager.getCustomFieldObjectByName("cf_datetime") issue.setCustomFieldValue(cf_date, dt) issue.setCustomFieldValue(cf_datetime, date)
issue.setDueDate(ts) return issue.getCustomFieldValue(cf_datetime)
Thank you, Alexey for offering help. Thanks to Jamie, who helped me in fixing my script. My script works fine when I manually run it from scriptrunner but not when I insert it into the post-function at 'Create' in the workflow.
