Required field on one screen only

[Mattias Haukebö]

Hi,

I have a custom field on our Resolve Issue screen. The field is called Component categorization (similar to Product categorization).

The problem i encounter when making that field required is that it asks for that field to be filled in when creating a new ticket (issue creation screen), even though that field is not on that particular screen?

Is there a way to tell JSD to only apply a field to be required on a certain screen?

Hi @Mattias Haukebö,

The main reason is that when you make a field required from Field Configuration Scheme, it becomes required from CREATE action to the last step in the flow.

If you just want to do required in a specific transition,

• Go the the "Workflows" from admin page
• Edit the related workflow
• Find the transition (Resolve) than "Add validator" from Validators tab
• Make the field required

Hi @Tansu Akdeniz

From what i can see, you need JSU to get this to work, do you know if there is any ways around that?
