[2016-08-23] Released Jira Workflow Toolbox 2.2.16

Improvements

• " A field is/isn't initialized" condition and " Fields required or changed validator" validator now support also system fields. Until the moment they only supported custom fields.

• Function hasChanged(field_code) now supports the following system fields:
  • Summary
  • Description
  • Due date
  • Priority
  • Environment
  • Fixed Versions
  • Affected Versions
  • Components
  • Labels
  • Security Level
  • Resolution
  • Reporter
  • Assignee
    
    Until now this function worked only with custom fields.
    
    Function hasChanged(field_code) is used when we set a validation that is incompatible with a condition in a same transition, typically when validating a value entered in the transition screen. When Jira evaluates the validations in a transition, it also reevaluates the conditions, and if they are not satisfied an Action X is invalid error message is shown and the transition is not executed.
    
    Example: Let's suppose we have a boolean condition like {00012} = null (i.e., Due date = null) in a transition, so that it's only shown when Due date is empty. This transition also has a transition screen containing field Due date, and a boolean validation {00012} != null, in order to make Due date required in the transition.
    The configuration described above will not work, since both condition and validation are mutually incompatible. We can fix it replacing the boolean condition with {00012} = null OR hasChanged(%{00012}).
    
    Some real examples: Issue #363 and Issue #260.

• Support for reading Insight - Asset Management for Jira custom fields, but not yet for setting them.
