Set Automation Due Date for the following month on the 15th

[KPrice]

I am trying to create a due date of the 15th of the month.  But, if it is already past the 15th of the month, it needs to be the 15th of the following month.

When I do {{now.withDayOfMonth(15)}} it puts in the 15th of the current month, even when it is past that day (therefore being overdue)

Is there a way to make this work?

Hello @KPrice

Welcome to the Atlassian Community!

Per your description, I understand you are trying to set the due date of issues to the 15th-day of the current month, however, if the issue was created after the 15th-day of the month, the due date must be set with the 15th day of the next month. Is that correct?

You can use the parameter {{now.endOfMonth.plusDays(15)}} to set the due date with the 15th day of the next month, using a condition to identify if the issue was created after or before the 15th day. This would be the automation rule:

Let us know if you have any questions.
