Are derived fields or formula fields possible?

Deleted user September 1, 2021

I want to make an "Age" field that's just the current date minus the createdDate of the issue. So, the number of days the since creation date. Can I do this?

Age= (current date issue - the createdDate issue).. 

Is it possible to create formulated filed in jira.. Please suggest.. Thanks

By default you can not create those kinds of fiels in Jira.

I can suggest to use Scriptrunner for Jira. This app has a scripted fields feature.

Know that you can also filter for issues older than a certain amount of days without having to create a calculated field.
Example: created < -10d
This will give you all issues older than 10 days

You may also want to look at Abacus. Simplest way to calculate anything (Dates, durations and numeric values)in Jira. You example above is perfect for it.

Hi @[deleted],

This is possible with add-ons/plugins. There are more plugins supports scripted field(s)

e.g. Scriptrunner, JMWE, etc

Actually, for calculated fields, it's JMCF, not JMWE.
