How to add custom field which takes output of, result of another custom field with division number

[Kishore D]

Want to add one script field with below code. I am trying to achive division of custom filed with a number and output should store in my script field.

i have custom field A in my jira. Want to create Script field 'B'. B will store result of 'A'/1848.

Code:

import com.atlassian.jira.component.componentAccessor
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.Issue

def customFieldManager = componentAccessor.customFieldManager
def Benefits_EstCFID = 54700

def Benefits_EstCF = customFieldManager.getcustomFieldobject(Benefits_EstCFID)

if (!Benefits_EstCF) {
log.debug ("custom field with ID" + Benefits_EstCFID + "not found")
return null
}

def Benefits_Est = issue.getcustomFieldvalue(Benefits_EstCF)
return Benefits_Est/1848

Jira is giving result. But also failing the health condition on each execution at last line where i am dividing 'A' /1848

My guess is that the field is not of the type you are guessing it is, so Benefits_Est does not contain what you expect it to.

Thanks for the reply.  Benefits_Est  is number type custom filed in our jira.
Script field which i am adding is also number type. 

Script field(number type) = Benefits_Est (number type)/1848.

This is  what i  want to work.

After replacing line  ----> return Benefits_Est/1848 with 

return ((double)Benefits_Est)/1848 .

its working!!

When i create  single jira issue for testing it worked. When i create multiple issues, it failing again. When we check logs, i see below

Logs:

[customfield.Groovycustomfield]: script field failed on issue: ABC-1675, field: Benefit_Est
org.codehaus.groovy.runtime.typehandling.GroovycastException: cannot cast object 'null' with class 'null' to class 'double'. Try 'java.lang.double' instead

I suspect the custom field you are reading from is empty

calculation is happening and returning the division value in jira. But the problem is , Health condition is failing. it impacting server performance

I don't understand what you mean by "health condition"
