Problem

Passing a custom variable to a function like the following doesn't work anymore

{{now.minusBusinessDays(n)}}

Environment

Jira Cloud

Steps to Reproduce

• Create a variable varTimeSpent like

  {{#=}}{{issue.timetracking.timeSpentSeconds.divide(3600).divide(8)}}{{/}}

• Use the variable in a time function like this:

   {{now.minusBusinessDays(varTimeSpent).jiraDate}}

Expected Results

The function is supposed to evaluate the custom variable to an integer and perform calculations.

Actual Results

Nothing, just an empty value

Workaround

Add the output of the custom variable to a custom field and pass in the custom field like this:

 {{now.minusBusinessDays(issue.customfield_xxxx).jiraDate}}
