This function is planned to deprecated in a future release of JWT. 

JWT can temporarily store values in Temporary text or Temporary number fields. The values are automatically deleted at the end of each transition.

This post function is used to inhibit this automatic purge mechanism for the current transition. This way you can continue to work with the temporary values in the next transition triggered by the same issue, e.g. if you execute a second transition in a post function. 

Temporary field values are volatile since they are stored in the server's memory, and not persisted in the Jira database, unlike custom fields. This feature does not work across multiple nodes in Data Center!

They should only be used as temporary storage of values within the same transition, or a series of transitions automatically executed in sequence. This post function is intended to be used in this second case, in order to share temporary field values between different transitions of the sequence, otherwise, values will be cleared at the end of each transition.
