When configuring your post function, you can copy the value from a source field to a destination field. Click the + Add button to add additional field pairs to your configuration.

Keep in mind Note that not all conversions from source to destination field are supported, nor feasible. We can only ensure , that it will work if the source and source and destination fields are of the same field type, or if the destination field is a text field. Some additional combinations of different field types might work as well, however, they are not 'officially' supported.

Excerpt

Overwrite / Append / Prepend

For text fields and some fields that can take multiple values (like e.g. checkboxes), you can choose to overwrite, append or prepend the new value to any existing value. In the case of a text field, you can also choose a separator that will be put placed between the values (not shown in the screen shot above).

Create version if necessary

Imagine If your origin issue has a version, that you want to copy to it can be copied to the linked issue.

If the destination field is 'Fix Version/s', 'Affects Version/s' or some a custom field of type 'Version Picker', you can choose that to create a new version will be created in the target project, if it does not yet existedexist. If you don't choose select this option and that version does not yet exist, the user will get an error message will be displayed to users and the transition won't complete.However be aware, that the

even if the user does not have the 'Administer Projects' permission. (Normally a user needs that permission to be able to create a new version.)

Special 'Sources'

As source you have some additional options:

  • *** default value ***
    The default value of the destination field will be set.
  • *** empty ***
    The destination field will be set with the empty string value. When overwriting a field value, the resulting destination value will be null. When appending/prepending a field value, the resulting destination value will be the concatenation of the existing field value (if any) and the separator. If the intention aim is to clear the destination field value, then use the JSU "Set Any Field Value" or "Clear Field Value" post - functions. (See: Post-Function Concatenation Operations)
  • *** transition comment ***
    The comment, which the user entered on the transition screen.
  • *** last comment ***
    The last (most recent) comment already existing on the issue before the transition was started.

Special 'Destinations'

As destination you have some additional options:

  • *** new comment ***
    Create a new comment with the value from the source field.
