Updates & improvements
Universal Rule Builder: Update Any Issue Field
Previous User added to single user-picker fields: You can now select Previous user assigned to this field for the Assignee, Reporter, or other single-user-picker custom fields. Following the transition, this option updates the field with the last user assigned to the field. If there is no previous user or the issue is unassigned, the field remains unchanged. See the table below for a description of possible scenarios and outcomes.

The issue is unassigned, and there are no previous assignees | JSU does not update the field |
The issue is assigned, and there are no previous assignee | JSU does not update the field |
The issue is unassigned, and there is one previous assignee | JSU updates the field with the previous assignee |
The issue is assigned, and there is one previous assignee | JSU updates the field with the previous assignee |
The issue is unassigned, and there are multiple previous assignees | JSU updates the field with the most recent previous assignee |
The issue is assigned, and there are multiple previous assignees; the current assignee is not among the previous assignees | JSU updates the field with the most recent previous assignee |
The issue is assigned, and there are multiple previous assignees; the current assignee is among the previous assignees | JSU updates the field with the most recent previous assignee whether or not this is the current assignee |
