Unable to clear Asset referenced custom field

[Anusha Wilson]

I have a Asset and a Asset referenced field in a screen. The Asset referenced field lists values based on the Asset field. I am trying to clear the Asset referenced field whenever the Asset field is changed, so that users can select values for the Asset referenced field. I used the below behaviour script. But the value doesnt get cleared. Any help on this is appreciated. Thanks!

def category = getFieldById("customfield_27000");

def subcategory = getFieldById("customfield_27002");

def selectedCategory = category.getValue();

def myField = ComponentAccessor.getCustomFieldManager().getCustomFieldObjects().findByName("Category_A")

def fieldValue = underlyingIssue?.getCustomFieldValue(myField).toString()

def is_retained = fieldValue.contains(selectedCategory.toString())

if(fieldScreen.name.toString().contains("Edit"))

{

if(!is_retained)

{

    subcategory.setFormValue("")

}

}

Hi @Anusha Wilson ,

in my opinion the probel is related to .getCustomFieldObjects().findByName() method. It should return a list of custom fields.Please try the follwoing code :

import com.atlassian.jira.issue.CustomFieldManager;

import com.atlassian.jira.issue.fields.CustomField;

def category = getFieldById("customfield_27000");

def subcategory = getFieldById("customfield_27002");

def selectedCategory = category.getValue();

CustomFieldManager customFieldManager = ComponentAccessor.getCustomFieldManager();

CustomField myField = customFieldManager.getCustomFieldObjectByName("Category_A");

def fieldValue = underlyingIssue!=null?underlyingIssue.getCustomFieldValue(myField).toString():null;

def is_retained = (fieldValue!=null && fieldValue.contains(selectedCategory.toString()))?true:false;

if(fieldScreen.name.toString().contains("Edit")){

 if(!is_retained){

     subcategory.setFormValue("")

  

 }

}

Let me know,

Fabio
