Performing additional processing after a
transition is executed
JIRA allows you to perform additional tasks as part of a workflow transition through the
use of post functions. JIRA makes heavy use of post functions internally, for example, with
the out-of-the-box workflow, when you reopen an issue, the resolution field value is
cleared automatically.
In this recipe, we will look at how to add post functions to a workflow transition. We will
add a post function to automatically clear out the value stored in the
Reason for Backlog
custom field when we take it out of the
Backlog
status.
