I'm creating a subtask issue type and when I try to create one of the subtasks the create issue screen is requiring fields that are required in the create step of the parent issue. My issue is that I don't need that information in the subtask and would like to not have to either require the user to enter it or auto-populate it. The subtask is using a different workflow that does not require these fields. Is this possible to fix or a bug?
Check the "field configuration" as well. I suspect you've set the fields as mandatory in there and then used the same field configuration for parent and sub-tasks.
That was exactly it. Sometimes I think there are too many schemes to configure in JIra, though I need them all. Thanks.

The price of flexibility is often complexity of admin. I've been using JIRA since version 2 (and inherited version 1), and I still get confused by it sometimes.
