Description: This plugin adds a custom field type to Jira that will autocalculate the Weighted Shortest Job First (WSJF) score for a ticket based on the four input fields specified. By autocalculating this we ensure that the WSJF score is up to date even if changes are made to any of the inputs.
Other things to include:
- Technology stack: This plugin is written in Java and is intended for use with Jira Server software.
- Status: This project is stable and at a version 1.0.0 release. CHANGELOG.

This plugin needs to be configured to reference the correct fields in your Jira instance. Details for configuring this plugin are given in the INSTALL document.
To use this feature in Jira server you must have 4 fields pre configured. All four fields need to be either "Number Fields" or "Select List (single choice)" fields. In the case of the select list field all choices must be only numbers. The four fields should represent the following inputs: -Risk/Opportunity Value -Time Criticality Value -Business Value -A measure of effort such as Story Points The ids of the fields need to be mapped in the plugin code per the configuration instructions above.
After the plugin in installed per the Installation section the custom field can be added.

If any of the four fields needed for the calculation are blank then the formula returns -1.00. Otherwise the field with calculate and display the WSJF score.
The fields used to calculate the WSJF score cannot be changed without recompiling the plugin.
