Project Automation - Due date

[baraaabbas]

Hello, 

I set up a simple due date {{now.plusBusinessDays(2)}} triggers when an issue created. 

How this rule will work of Fridays? In Jira, we set weekends as non business hours. 

Is it possible to create a rule of 3 days only on Fridays? since I don't want to due date on Sundays. 

Thank you

Looked up this in the smart values help:

https://support.atlassian.com/jira-software-cloud/docs/use-smart-values-to-manipulate-and-format-dates/

Calculating business days

Plus or minus business days from the current date, or find the closest business day to the current date. Business days are considered Monday through Friday.

I can only assume that using this:

{{now.plusBusinessDays(2)}}

A Friday would have the due date land on a Tuesday.

Can test this for you this coming weekend.

Recommend making a test/dev project with a limited set of admins. You only pay for unique admins.
