Description

My company wants to score issues on a issue level rather than a project level. In order to do so we'd like a custom field that can be a calculation based on other issue fields. For example, we could have a custom field called score that would be a sum of priority * custom field priority_weight + time_estimate * custom field time_est_weight + custom field risk * custom field risk_weight + custom filed income_potential * custom field income_potential_weight, where weight would be some number between -10 and 10.

Adding custom fields that allowed calculation would give us the flexibility to do this. The field could be something like a formula field in a google doc spreadsheet. ie: my_custom_field = if(est_time > 3, 10, 5)*est_time_weight

That might be a lot to do, but it would be the ultimate in flexibility. All we need is simple addition/subtraction and multiplication. Although multiplying times "severity" field might be hard if it isn't an integer already.

Is it possible to sponsor work? If so, how much does it cost? (I ask without yet having the boss's approval mind you).
