This type of read-only custom field has a value which is dynamically calculated from a custom math/numeric expression. It can be used to obtain a numeric value depending on the value of other fields in current issue or in any other issues (linked issues, sub-tasks, epics, stories, JQL selected issues, etc). |
This parameter contains a valid math expression that will be calculated each time the value of the field is required. |
In this step by step example we show how to create a calculated number field called "Number of Blocking Issues" that will return the number of unresolved issues, the current issue is linked to "is blocked by" issue link type. |

In this example we configure a calculated number field that will show the remaining time for Due Date following the same previous step in the first example, except at step 4 use the following math-time expression : where To achieve this, the following functions are used:
We select duration as display format, since the numeric value being calculated, a number of milliseconds, represents a time duration. This way the value is represented like We also check parameter "Uninitialized when calculated value is zero", since we don't want the field to be shown once Due Date has been reached. Finally, the configuration of the new custom field should look like this: |
In this example we configure a calculated number field for showing the time elapsed since issue creation to issue resolution. For issues which are still not resolved, the field will be uninitialized, thus it won't be shown in the view screen, following the previous steps in the first example, except at step 4 use the following math-time expression:
To achieve this the following functions are used:
We select "Duration with short format" as display mode. This way, the string value of the field will be something easily readable, like Other display options are available:
Finally, the configuration of the new custom field should look like this: |
