Date Window Validator
This is the documentation for JSU for Jira Server/Data Center. If you are using JSU on Jira Cloud, see our JSU Cloud documentation.
Description
The ‘Date Window’ validator checks whether the value of one date field falls within the range (window) of another date field. The date checking is only one-way; it only looks forward, not backward. If the check fails, no action will be performed.
Configuration
You must select the two date fields and the window period when configuring the transition.
Example
A workflow is configured so that Date Window validator is set up for the 'Close' transition The 'Due Date' is checked using a window of five days with respect to the 'Created Date'. If a user attempts to resolve an issue on this workflow, where the 'Due Date' is more than five days after the 'Created Date', the check will fail and the action will not be completed.
