Use case

This calculated field will return the predicted resolution date of the issue by adding the remaining estimate to the current date and taking business hours into consideration.

To achieve this, a calendar is used to specify the actual business hours.


Configuration


Create a new Calculated Date-Time Field (by JWT) custom field and name it appropriately.

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



Parser expression

Add the following expression:

{issue.remainingEstimate} != null ? addTime({system.currentDateTime},({issue.remainingEstimate} * {MINUTE}), "working-hours", LOCAL) : null



working-hours is the JWT calendar used to specifiy the actual business hours. In this example we will assume a simple eight-hour working day:

MON-FRI {
   08:00-17:00;
}
