How can I set Due Date with a Calculated Value.

Question

Hi,
I want to set Due Date with some specific business rules. It will calculate depending on Severity and Priority. I wrote the script below but it doesn't work.
Thank you.

dojo.provide("org.example.workitems.providers.LatenessIndicator");
dojo.require("com.ibm.team.workitem.api.common.WorkItemAttributes");
dojo.require("dojo.date");
dojo.require("dojo.date.stamp");

(function() {
var WorkItemAttributes= com.ibm.team.workitem.api.common.WorkItemAttributes;

dojo.declare("org.example.workitems.providers.LatenessIndicator", null, {

    getValue: function(attributeId, workItem, configuration) {

        // Get the creation date and the current date and compute the difference in days.
        var DueDate= dojo.date.stamp.fromISOString(workItem.getValue(WorkItemAttributes.DUE_DATE));
var currentDate = new Date();
DueDate = Date.now();

        // Return a string that indicates whether the completion of this work item is on time
        // or not based on its severity and how much time has passed since it was created.

        var severity = workItem.getValue(WorkItemAttributes.SEVERITY);
var priority = workItem.getValue(WorkItemAttributes.PRIORITY);
//console.log("Basladi");
//Priority l02 = Low, l07=Medium, l11=High
//Severity l02 = Minor, l03=Normal, l04=Major
var s_multiplier = 4;
var p_multiplier = 4;
if ((severity === "severity.literal.l02")) {
s_multiplier = 3;
        } else if ((severity === "severity.literal.l03")) {
s_multiplier = 2;
        } else if ((severity === "severity.literal.l4")) {
s_multiplier = 1;
        } else {
            s_multiplier = 4;
        }
if ((priority === "priority.literal.l02")) {
p_multiplier = 3;
        } else if ((priority === "priority.literal.l07")) {
p_multiplier = 2;
        } else if ((priority === "priority.literal.l11")) {
p_multiplier = 1;
        } else {
            p_multiplier = 4;
        }
DueDate.setdate() = Date.now() + (s_multiplier * p_multiplier);
return "";
    }
});
})();

You have to calculate a date and return it as string. For example

 var date = Date.now() + (s_multiplier * p_multiplier); // Not sure this is syntactically correct.
 return dojo.date.stamp.toISOString(date, {milliseconds:true, zulu:true});

Hi Ralph,
I am getting "Caused by: org.mozilla.javascript.EcmaError: TypeError: Cannot find function getUTCFullYear in object 1403532234081. ({"Bundle-SymbolicName":"org.dojotoolkit.dojo", "path":"\resources\date", "name":"stamp.js"}#120)" error, when I use return dojo.date.stamp.toISOString(returnDate, {milliseconds:true, zulu:true}); " and returndate value is 1403532234081.
Thank you.

That is odd. I have found this code and it worked for me:

dojo.provide("com.team.example.CurrentDate");
dojo.require("dojo.date"); // We need the date class from Dojo to compare two dates
dojo.require("dojo.date.stamp"); // We need the stamp class to work with ISO date strings
(function() {
    dojo.declare("com.team.example.CurrentDate", null, {
    getDefaultValue: function(attribute, workItem, configuration) {

    var now=new Date();
    var date= dojo.date.stamp.toISOString(now, {milliseconds:true, zulu:true});
    console.log("Now is: " + date);
    return date;

    }
});

})();

Not sure what goes wrong. Maybe the calculation?

Hi Ralph,
Yes, you are right. When I did calculation, date automatically is being converted to long. I used dojo.date.add instead of it.
Now, it is working. Thank you very much.

dojo.provide("org.example.workitems.providers.duedatesetter");
dojo.require("com.ibm.team.workitem.api.common.WorkItemAttributes");
dojo.require("dojo.date");
dojo.require("dojo.date.locale");
dojo.require("dojo.date.stamp");

(function() {
var WorkItemAttributes= com.ibm.team.workitem.api.common.WorkItemAttributes;

dojo.declare("org.example.workitems.providers.duedatesetter", null, {
    getValue: function(attributeId, workItem, configuration) {
var DueDate= dojo.date.stamp.fromISOString(workItem.getValue(WorkItemAttributes.DUE_DATE));

        var severity = workItem.getValue(WorkItemAttributes.SEVERITY);
var priority = workItem.getValue(WorkItemAttributes.PRIORITY);

//Priority l02 = Low, l07=Medium, l11=High
//Severity l2 = Minor, l3=Normal, l4=Major
var s_multiplier = 1;
var p_multiplier = 1;
if ((severity == "severity.literal.l2")) {
s_multiplier = 3;
        } else if ((severity == "severity.literal.l3")) {
s_multiplier = 2;
        } else if ((severity == "severity.literal.l4")) {
s_multiplier = 1;
        }
if ((priority == "priority.literal.l02")) {
p_multiplier = 3;
        } else if ((priority == "priority.literal.l07")) {
p_multiplier = 2;
        } else if ((priority == "priority.literal.l11")) {
p_multiplier = 1;
        }
var returnDate = new Date();
returnDate=dojo.date.add(returnDate, "day", s_multiplier * p_multiplier);
return dojo.date.stamp.toISOString(returnDate, {milliseconds:true, zulu:true});
    }
});
})();

It's all about the answers!
