Clearing a text custom field if cascading child is empty when editing the issue.

[Joel Batac]

HI,

 Im trying to clear a text field based on cascading's child option (if it is none). I tried using count (List) if is it less than 2, empty it. I tried getting the empty value using (?). And even getting the string value (.contains) but to no avail.

Here's what I have

def investmentClass = getFieldById("customfield_69820")
def requestClassification = getFieldById("customfield_69311")

Map selectedOptions = requestClassification.getValue() as Map
def parentOption = selectedOptions.get(0).toString()
def childOption = selectedOptions.get(1).toString()

//def cfAValue = requestClassification.value as List  ///tried to count the numbers options //if (cfAValue.size < 2) {entered

//if (!childOption){  ///tried if option is empyt/null
//if (childOption.contains("bank") || childOption.contains("Bank")) { ///checked if option has value

if (childOption == null ) {
investmentClass.setFormValue('')
} else {
investmentClass.setFormValue(childOption)
}

How can i achieve this?

@Joel Batac 

The text field you are trying to clear is in a parent issue or a linked issue?

in the same issue.

i got it working by using  below.

if (childOption == !null) {
investmentClass.setHidden(true)
investmentClass.setFormValue(childOption)
} else {
investmentClass.setFormValue('')
investmentClass.setHidden(true)
}

Nothing rewarding than finding the solution yourself. Glad you were able to get it done!

All the best,
