Configuration

UI Steps


UI Step

Create a new Calculated Number Field (by JWT) custom field and name it properly.

UI Text Box
typetip

Providing a description will help you to identify what the custom field does but this step is optional



UI Step

Parser expression

Add the following expression:

Code Block
languagebash
titleMath expression for Calculated number field:
linenumberstrue
{issue.dueDate} != null ? max({issue.dueDate} - {system.currentDateTime}, 0) : null


UI Expand
titlemore info...


UI Text Box
typeinfo

To achieve this, the following functions are used:

  • Conditional operator
  • max() is used to avoid returning a negative duration when the Due date has passed.




UI Step

Display format

UI Steps


UI Step

Choose Duration as Content type


UI Step

Choose Short as Duration display format

UI Expand
titlemore info...


UI Text Box
typeinfo

For this use case the format duration was chosen, since the numeric value being calculated, a number of milliseconds, represents a time duration.

This way the value is represented like 2d 9h 43m instead of a single number.





UI Step

Check the parameter Uninitialized when calculated value is zero

UI Expand
titlemore info...


UI Text Box
typeinfo

This parameter is set to stop calculation once the Due Date has been reached.





UI Step

Add the field to the relevant view screens.

Remember: All calculated fields are read-only and cannot be manually updated on a create or edit screen.



UI Step

Once configured and added to an issue screen, the result will look like this:
