Field depending on single list value

Juliane_O July 6, 2020

Hi,

I've got a single List with the Options Administrator, Developer and User.

If Administrator is used I want a checkbox field "Are you sure" to be mandatory.

How do I implement this? Thank you.

If you are trying to have a popup that says "are you sure" when you select "Administrator" that will be difficult.

But you can check for that case with a validator when the user tries to leave the transition.

something like

Field != adminstrator OR Checkbox is set

It would  allow the user to select administrator but they wouldn't be able to transition the issue unless the checkbox is also set.

Pair with a transition screen showing the 2 fields, so the user can correct it during the transition.

I suspect more information is required in order to provide with an actually suitable answer. What you have in mind right now might not be possible but understanding what you want to achieve I'm possitive we can give you some hint about how to set your project up

A field being mandatory means that no issue can be created if that field has no value. 

You could probably could use custom transition screens or something similar to promt the user to introduce the value you don't want them to forget about. If you provide with a step by step guide of the real world process you want to recreate in Jira I'm sure I can suggest you something.

Sorry I don't have a more direct answer. I hope it is of help regardless.
