update due date with working days instead business days

[Tehmina Aslam]

My due date field getting value from the {{issue.resume date.plusBusinessDays(TimeTrackingDays.asNumber)}}

but the issue is Friday and Saturday are our holidays and Sunday to Thursday are our working days. 

the above smart value sometimes set Friday as a due date but it should set Sunday as the due date. 

is there any way to set plus working days instead business days?

Hi @Tehmina Aslam 

Unfortunately, very few features of Jira appear to use the working days (or hours) configured for the site or at a project level.  This includes ignoring any defined holidays for non-working days.  Automation rule functions have this same limitation.

One possible work-around is to first use plusDays followed by the diff and format functions in an advanced compare condition to determine if the resulting day falls on your team's non-working days.  You could then increment the date, as needed.  Please look here to learn more about those functions: https://support.atlassian.com/cloud-automation/docs/jira-smart-values-date-and-time/

Kind regards,
Bill

Hi @Tehmina Aslam 

In automation you can work with business days or days. There is no something like working days.

I think that the best solution will be set working days in jira - https://support.atlassian.com/jira-software-cloud/docs/configure-working-days/

Hi,

Thanks for the reply but setting working days in the board setting is not changing business days for automation.

I didn't think about workdays in board but in jira global time tracking permission. Please go through docs again.
