few steps:
1) get the customfield id (you can check by going to the fields -> click on the custom field), the id is part of the URL (at least in JIRA 4.4)
2) For the code:
a) find the parent ticket (newIssue)
b) find the value by
def requestorFieldName = "customfield_XXXXX"
ComponentManager componentManager = ComponentManager.getInstance()
CustomFieldManager customFieldManager = componentManager.getCustomFieldManager()
//get Requestor Name
CustomField field = customFieldManager.getCustomFieldObject(fieldName)
requestorName = newissue.getCustomFieldValue(field)
c) and you can set the current issue with issue.setCustomFiedl (I think - best to look for JIRA API documentation)
Again this is based off JIRA 4.4, so you might need to double check the API documentation for whichever version you are using
Hope this helps!
