Use Case

This workflow helps to make sure that users do not create combinations of priorities and states that you want to avoid in your project.

Module

This on-change rule checks the combination of Priority and State when an issue is created or updated. The following combinations are blocked:

Submitted and Show-stopper
Open and Unassigned

Block incompatible value combinations for custom fields

var entities = require('@jetbrains/youtrack-scripting-api/entities');
var workflow = require('@jetbrains/youtrack-scripting-api/workflow');

exports.rule = entities.Issue.onChange({
  title: workflow.i18n('Block incompatible value combinations for custom fields'),
  action: function(ctx) {
    var issue = ctx.issue;
    workflow.check(!(issue.fields.Priority.name === ctx.Priority.ShowStopper.name && issue.fields.State.name === ctx.State.Submitted.name),
      workflow.i18n('Denied fields combination detected (Submitted Show-stopper)'));

    workflow.check(!(issue.fields.Assignee === null && issue.fields.State.name === ctx.State.Open.name),
      workflow.i18n('Denied fields combination detected (Open Unassigned)'));
  },
