Acceptance Criteria

[Krish.loku]

We have 1 project with 2 boards and the Acceptance criteria is mandatory in the issue. 

When creating the ticket in the backlog it is too much work for one board to have it mandatory. So, I'm looking at an option to make it optional in one board if it is possible.

Hi @Krish.loku  ,

It is not possible to make fields mandatory according to the boards. Instead, you can consider creating a new project or using a different issue type within the same project that requires the acceptance criteria field.

Thanks.

Thanks for the reply @GNarsimhagowda - Empyra . Is it possible to have a default value in the acceptance criteria field? 

[GNarsimhagowda - Empyra]

It is indeed possible to include a default value in the acceptance criteria field. However, it is important to note that you cannot have different default values for different boards in the same project.

Thanks @GNarsimhagowda - Empyra , We have created a default value and by pass the need to fill it all the time. We used default as "N/A"

Hi Krish,

Boards are just views of the data, so they have no impact on being able to trigger things or prevent them. Fields are attached to Projects and/or Issue Types. So unless the boards use different Issue Types, then you will not be able to do that. If they do use different issues types, then create a Field Configuration for each Issue Type in the Field Configuration Scheme for the project. Then update one of them to make the Acceptance Criteria field Required.

Yes, you can provide a default value for the Acceptance Criteria field.
