How to do an automatic change of a custom field option due to changing of issue status?

[Alexander Ivanov]

Hi, guys.

My company needs a special workflow so i've made several custom fields in the issue. 

So, i'm wondering how to sovle this case: when a team member changes an issue status he also needs to change a option in a custom field. So how could a custom field be changed due to changing an issue status? 

Thank you!

Hi @Alexander Ivanov,

I've always done this with Jira Misc Workflow Extensions app. You can look at it in this URL: https://marketplace.atlassian.com/apps/292/jira-misc-workflow-extensions?hosting=server&tab=overview

Hi,

You can do as a post-function.

Read this:

I'm not sure if you have a post-function to update custom field (built in from Jira), if you don't you will need a 3rd party add-on like:

• Jira Suite Utilities
• Automation for Jira
• Scriptrunner
• Power Script
• JMWE

And there are many more
