Want to make custom field required based on another field value

[jaya chandra reddy nellore]

Hi Folks,

I have Custom field Source ID(Text field) values contains like KB-*,IN-*,TE-*..etc, Now i have to create behavior script If Source ID values starts with KB* i want to make RCA Custom field(text field) Required.

Tried below script but not working. Script-1

-------------------------------------------------

import com.onresolve.jira.groovy.user.FieldBehaviours

import groovy.transform.BaseScript

@BaseScript FieldBehaviours behaviours

def Source= getFieldById('Source ID')

def RCAfield= getFieldByName('RCA')

RCAfield.required = false

if(Source.toString().contains('KB') ) {

    RCAfield.required = true

}

Script-2

----------------

def value=(String)getFieldByName('Source ID').value

if(value== 'KB-2209920')

{

getFieldByName('RCA').setRequired(true)

}

else

{

  getFieldByName('RCA').setRequired(false)  

}

Hi @jaya chandra reddy nellore

you could try changing the first script as follow:

import com.onresolve.jira.groovy.user.FieldBehaviours
import groovy.transform.BaseScript

@BaseScript FieldBehaviours behaviours

def Source = getFieldByName('Source ID').formValue
def RCAfield = getFieldByName('RCA')

if(Source.toString().contains('KB') ) {
    RCAfield.setRequired(true)
} else {
    RCAfield.setRequired(false)
}

@Andrea Pannitti It's not working.

Hi @jaya chandra reddy nellore ,

welcome to the Atlassian community!

Here a correct behaviour code to associate to your field Source ID.

def sourcefield= getFieldByName('Source ID')
def RCAfield= getFieldByName('RCA')

String sourceValue = sourcefield.getValue()

if(sourceValue.startsWith("KB")){
RCAfield.setRequired(true);
} else {
RCAfield.setRequired(false);
}

Please let me know if it works,

Fabio

@Fabio Racobaldo _Herzum_  This is not working.

def sourcefield= getFieldByName('Source ID')

def RCAfield= getFieldByName('RCA Notes')

String sourceValue = sourcefield.getValue()

if(sourceValue.startsWith("IN")){

RCAfield.setRequired(true);

} else {

RCAfield.setRequired(false);

}

Do i need to add custom field RCA notes in behavior? 

[Fabio Racobaldo _Herzum_]

you need to add that code in a behaviour mapped to your project/issue type and for field "Source ID". It should work

[jayachandrajira]

@Fabio Racobaldo _Herzum_  Please check below screen shorts, i am also following same but no use.

behavior script: Screen shorts 1 & 2

Checking behavior applied or not: Screen shorts 3 & 4

[Fabio Racobaldo _Herzum_]

@jaya chandra reddy nellore , is Source ID in the same screen of RCA Notes? It seems no.

[jayachandrajira]

@Fabio Racobaldo _Herzum_ Bothe are in the same screen, but both are in different tabs only.

[Fabio Racobaldo _Herzum_]

please could you share me a screenshot of transition screen with both values?

Hi @jaya chandra reddy nellore,

If you are using this for a Server-Side Behaviour, the correct approach to ensure that the Behaviour will be triggered is to use the fieldChanged to initialise the field the Behaviour is configured for, as shown below:-

import com.onresolve.jira.groovy.user.FieldBehaviours

import groovy.transform.BaseScript


@BaseScript FieldBehaviours behaviours

def Source= getFieldById(fieldChanged)
def sourceValue = Source.toString()

def RCAfield= getFieldByName('RCA')

RCAfield.required = false

if(sourceValue.contains('KB')  || sourceValue.startsWith('KB') ) {
    RCAfield.required = true
}

Please visit this ScriptRunner Training Video for more information.

I hope this helps to answer your question. :)

Thank you and Kind regards,

Ram

Without going in to details already, I notice you use different methods for setting required.

RCAfield.required = true

and

getFieldByName('RCA').setRequired(true)

Whats the idea here?

Also to get the value you need to use  formField.getValue() and not just .value

maybe a good idea to look thru the api quick reference first?
