Displaying a custom field in Edit screen when no initial value

Hugo Molloy

Hi,

I have a custom field (date) which is only to be set once an issue is ready to be closed. However, when an issue is created this field is not displayed and as such cannot be edited. Is it possible to display this for edit when there is no value set when creating an issue?

Thanks

With custom fields, there must be a value.

Thanks for the quick reply! Does JIRA have any plans to remove this?

Hugh,

If you don't need the field on edit screen, you can remove it.

Hi Victor,

Unfortunately, I need to find a workaround so that users can edit/input a date on the edit screen. My query is whether there are any plans to remove the need to input data on the Create screen in order to be able to edit/input a value in the custom filed later.

Hi @Hugo Molloy

if the field is to be set once the issue reaches a particular status you could add a transition which loops back to the same status with a transition screen to set the date value

Thanks Tom this is something I will look to do
