Worklogger Validator

The Worklogger Validator must be used in conjunction with a Worklogger Custom Field


What is it?

This validator is used to save the worklogs entered by a user in a workflow transition screen using a Worklogger Custom Field.

Please see Log Work on Workflow Transition for more details.

Configure the Worklogger Validator

  • Add the Worklogger Validator to the transition on which you have the screen that has the Worklogger custom field

    For more information on adding a validator to JIRA, please see JIRA: Adding a Validator
    Please be sure that the Worklogger Validator is the last validator in the list.

    Failure to do so might result in worklogs being logged with invalid data.
    Adding a Worklog Validator
  • Its configuration allows you to specify if the Worklog is mandatory or optional.
