Epic Link Doesn't Show on Move Screen

Cailin Che_3cob1c

We are attempting to move some tickets between two projects (projects A and on our Jira instance. Both projects have the Jira native field "Epic Link" on their edit and create screens for all issue types. 

When moving from Project A to Project B, we are prompted during the move for a number of field updates, but "Epic Link" is not included in this. Project A does not require epics, but Project B does (in a business standards sense, it is not coded as a required field). Is there a way to get the "Epic Link" field to show up here? How does Jira determine which fields to display on the Update Fields screen when moving issues?

TIA!

Hi @Cailin Che 

It only includes fields which are a necessity from an encoded perspective.

So if an Epic Link is still optional in Project B, rather than mandatory, it won't appear.
