change drop down value of custom field based on status

[Raju KC]

I want to change drop down value of custom field based on status.
For eg:
If status is StatusA, then value in drop down should be A1,A2.
If status is StatusB, then value in drop down should be A1,B1,B2.
How can i achieve this?

You can use the JJupin plugin for that with its Live Fields fieature. Here's a similar example to what you're looking for:

Its Not working for me. Do we have any sample code for help?

You can achieve this using Behaviours with the below code. Behaviours is part of Adaptivist ScriptRunner plugin.
Select the drop down field and add the below server side script:

import com.atlassian.jira.component.ComponentAccessor

def customFieldManager = ComponentAccessor.getCustomFieldManager()

def optionsManager = ComponentAccessor.getOptionsManager()

def formField = getFieldById(getFieldChanged())

def customField = customFieldManager.getCustomFieldObject(formField.getFieldId())

def config = customField.getRelevantConfig(getIssueContext())

def options = optionsManager.getOptions(config)

if (underlyingIssue.getStatus().getName() == "A") {

 

def optionsMap = options.findAll {

it.value in ["A1", "B2"]

}.collectEntries {

[

(it.optionId.toString()) : it.value

]

}

formField.setFieldOptions(optionsMap)

} 

if (underlyingIssue.getStatus().getName() == "B") {

 

def optionsMap = options.findAll {

it.value in ["A1", "B1", "B2"]

}.collectEntries {

[

(it.optionId.toString()) : it.value

]

}

formField.setFieldOptions(optionsMap)

}

hi!!

you can use Database Custom Field (https://marketplace.atlassian.com/plugins/com.keplerrominfo.jira.plugins.databasecf) and a auxiliar database table with the relationship between status and drop down field.

The database table will have the following values:

Status A - A1

Status A - A2

Status B - A1

Status B - B1

Status B - B2

So, the query will be dependant on status field :-)

Hope this helps.

You can use Behaviours plugin for this , You will need to write a custom groovy script which will check for the status and display options in the required customfield .

refer the below docs for examples

https://jamieechlin.atlassian.net/wiki/display/JBHV/JIRA+Behaviours+Plugin

is it possible via javascript?

[Raju KC]

Will script runner plugin be used instead of Behaviours plugin?

[Mizan]

It wont be possible via javascript since the status is not present on the screen/pop up

[Mizan]

Script runner cannot cannot be used to change the values of a dropdown on the screen , script runner can provide a post function which will set the value to the customfield based on status

Using behaviours plugin for this type of customization is better than pasting javascript in the fields description
