Unable to get Simple Validation to Work

[Sarathi Chatterjee]

Hi 

I am trying to get a validation where when Resolving an issue if the value of the multi select list contains "Change - Failed or partially failed Production Release", then the user must enter the CR Ref. field, for which I am using the query below 

cfValues['Source of Incident']*.value.contains("Change ? Failed or partially failed Production Release") || cfValues['CR Ref.']

based on your link  Here

But the problem is that with my query gets fired  for any value selected.

Can you please tell me what I am doing wrong 

Thanks

Hi Sarathi,

There were a couple of issues with your given script:

• Condition Typo - I noticed that in your description the option you wanted to pickup started "Change - ", but your actual condition in your script was "Change ? ". Your script needs to match the option you are validation on exactly.
• Improper negation - This will return true, which means that nothing else will pass. This is the opposite condition of what you are looking for. You can fix this by negating the entire statement
• OR rather than AND - I noticed that in your script you are writing "If the option is selected OR there is a reference". What your requirement states is something different (i.e. "If the option is selected AND there is not a reference")

I've taken the liberty of correcting these and putting together a working validation:

!(cfValues['Source of Incident'] &&
    cfValues['Source of Incident']*.value?.contains("Change - Failed or partially failed Production Release") &&
    !cfValues['CR Ref.'])

I hope this helps!

Hello, 

I tested out the same query as you (your first one) and didn't have any trouble getting it work as how you described wanting with the latest version of ScriptRunner. 

What version of ScriptRunner are you on?

We are running 5.2.2

Would you be able to submit a support request on the ScriptRunner support portal? We can get information from you easier and more securely there and hopefully get this issue solved for you quickly.

I have also tried the following with the same result 

cfValues['Source of Incident']*.value.contains("Change ? Failed or partially failed Production  Release") && cfValues['CR Ref.']

cfValues['Source of Incident']*.value == ("Change ? Failed or partially failed Production Release") || cfValues['CR Ref.']
