How to make custom fields in issue type as mandatory in new-gen project?

Question

How to make custom fields in issue type as mandatory in new-gen project? Is this feature been added?

I added "Defect Root Cause" and "Closure Date" custom fields in issue type "Bug", but am unable to make it mandatory.

Hi

I am Andrew, Support Engineer for ThinkTilt, vendors of the ProForma app.

A solution for your business use case would be to utilise the ProForma product. We have a free version (ProForma Lite) which you could use to test it out for this scenario (ProForma Lite allows creating up to 3 form templates)

The ProForma product
- supports the question types you're mentioning here
- allows associating forms to issue types (or request types)
- allows linking to custom Jira fields
- is usable across the different Jira platforms (Cloud, Server, D/C) and products (Software, Service Desk)
- allows questions to be set to mandatory to force data entry

Does this make sense?

More information on ProForma and what it can do is available at the following links:

Let us know what you decide to do.

Regards,

Andrew.
