Is there a way to implement automatic value calculation?

Brianna Zenk March 1, 2019

I have 4 fields that need to be created with drop down values. The 5th field would take the total of the 4 values above. Is there a plug in that would allow for Jira to use drop downs with different values and the calculate the total? 

 

Field 1: Urgency

Drop down value 1: None 0 pts

Drop down value 2: Next three months 2 pts

 

Field 2: Business Value

Drop down value 1: None 0 pts

Drop down value 2: Improvement to some .5 pts

 

Field 3: Customer Impact

Drop down value 1: None 0 pts

Drop down value 2: Business or customer demand 1 pt

 

Field 4: Utility 

Drop down value 1: None 0 pts

Drop down value 2: Useful to ALL 1pts

 

Field 5

 Automatically calculate totals/vaules from Fields 1-4.

Hello,

There are multiple add-ons, which can help you: Power Scripts, ScriptRunner, Automation for Jira, Workflow Toolbox, JWME.

If you want to use the Power Scripts add-on, then you could create a post function with a code like this:

${Field 5} = ${Urgency} + ${Business Value} + ${Customer Impact} + ${Utility};

This post function would sum up all values in the four fields and put the result into Field 5
