Compare custom date field value to created date field value

[Lakshmi CH]

Hi 

I want to set the Priority to Major when the below condition is true, I have used "set field value (JMWE for jira server)", but it not setting to Major. Could you please anyone correct the equal script ?

(issue.getAsString("Issue Type") == "Change Request" || issue.getAsString("Issue Type") =="Bug" ) && issue.get("Need By Date") == new Date()

or

(issue.getAsString("Issue Type") == "Change Request" || issue.getAsString("Issue Type") =="Bug" ) && issue.get("Need By Date").equals(new Date())

but these are working,

(issue.getAsString("Issue Type") == "Change Request" || issue.getAsString("Issue Type") =="Bug" ) && issue.get("Need By Date").before( new Date() )

and

(issue.getAsString("Issue Type") == "Change Request" || issue.getAsString("Issue Type") =="Bug" ) && issue.get("Need By Date").after( new Date() )

Hi,

that's because Date objects contain both a date and a time component, so new Date() returns "now", not just "today". To return "today", use:

new Date().clearTime()

Thank you for your quick response @David Fischer . Its working.

(issue.getAsString("Issue Type") == "Change Request" || issue.getAsString("Issue Type") =="Bug" ) && issue.get("Need By Date").equals(new Date().clearTime())

Hi,

The same scenario, but i have to add the project name as script here.

Ex: Project ABC and Project XYZ and Issutype stories. But i want to implement this only for project ABC bugs not for project XYZ.

Thanks in advance.

Best,

Ganesh.
