Error message "You need the manage sprint permission for all projects in the origin board to manage this sprint"

User has been given project admin role across all projects where stories originate. Still no luck in him being able to close a sprint.

Yes, it would make it mandatory for all the projects.

As I have seen here: https://confluence.atlassian.com/display/JIRA060/Specifying+Field+Behaviour, you may have multiple field cofigurations.

So, you can create a new field configuration scheme and a new field configuration. In the field configuration you should due date required. Now, all you have to do is to use the new field configuration scheme for the project in case.

 I have tried this, it works.

This is my last idea - I have seen though you don't want many schemes...

Yeah, I would have to have custom field scheme for this one project to do this?

I have tried to stay organised and have only a couple of schemes and workflows across all my projects.

Changing this in the field scheme would make it mandatory for all my projects I think?

[Alexandra Topoloaga]

If all you want to do is make the field mandatory, you can set it as required from the project administration, but that would make the field mandatory for all the projects.

Thanks Alexandra, unfortunately getting new plugins is a slow process, is there anyway I can just write a JQL query to use in the simple script section that's available by default?

[Alexandra Topoloaga]

Hi Paul,

Using JJUPIN plugin you can write a validator as simple as this: 

if(isNull(dueDate)) {
   return false, "duedate", "Due date should not be null!";
}

The result would look like this:

I hope this helps,
