Mandatory custom field on Issue Resolution - How to do this?

KrishIT Customer Support

Want to add a custom field similar to the mandatory resolution field at the time of Issue Resolution. How to do this?

I made a custom field and made it 'Required' in the screen 'JIRA Service Desk Resolve Issue Screen - 6'. At the time of changing the status of an issue to Resolved, as expected I need to fill in the custom field. All good so far.

Problem is the mandatory custom field shows up in Customer Portal at the time of Request Creation and does not progress further until the custom field is filled. 

Need help on how to make the mandatory custom field to show up ONLY at the time of Issue Resolution and NOT at the time of Request Creation in Customer Portal.

Concept is similar to the 'Resolution' field which is mandatory.

Thank you in advance for the help.

You should not make it required in this way. I was just responding to another thread that offers a solution that should work for you. Have a look and let me know if it makes sense - How-do-you-make-Required-mandatory-fields-only-for-1-project . While the use case is different the solution is the same.
