Getting an error when I click on it Jira software board access..!?

[Jineesh V]

Hi Team,

I have given access to the user for the Jira software board, but their telling they are getting error  like this “It seems this board doesn't have an assigned location. You can ask your board administrator to assign it to a project or user.”

I have checked the assigned location for the board and that I can see.

Could you please tell me the remedy.

Thanks

Sorry, I didn't realize that was from an add-on but fortunately, it's a free one. You need to install JIRA Suites. It has a ton of really useful stuff in it, including the Required Field Validator option.

Once you have it, you will wonder how you ever lived without it (and no, I don't work for the developer ).

 @Kathy Tempesta - Thanks for your input, I've attempted your suggestion and I have 3 options related to permissions of the user and nothing related to "Field required". Is this correct? Do I need to do something else for this "Field required" option to appear?

Here below is the previous screen before to you some context for the transition at hand.

Thanks for all of your help on this matter. 

Thanks,

If all you want to do is make that field required for that specific transition, you can use a validator. Go to the desired step in the workflow and select the Validators tab. Choose Add Validator and select the Field Required option. Depending on what version oif JIRA you are using, you can either select the just field you want (Fix Version) or select the field and add a custom error message.

Good point; my validator was actually comparing fields, I simplified it for this example. I forgot that the simplified version is built-in.

You can do this with a custom script; I have similar ones to ensure that, at "Close" time, all versions listed in Fix Version/s are flagged as verified, against a "Verified Version/s" custom field.  You'd make it a custom validator on the "QA Review" transition in the workflow, something like:

import com.atlassian.jira.issue.Issue
import com.atlassian.jira.ComponentManager
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.CustomFieldManager
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.fields.CustomField
import com.atlassian.jira.project.version.Version
import com.opensymphony.workflow.InvalidInputException
import org.apache.log4j.Category

def Category log = Category.getInstance("com.onresolve.jira.groovy.PostFunction");


ComponentManager componentManager = ComponentManager.getInstance()
CustomFieldManager customFieldManager = componentManager.getCustomFieldManager()
CustomField fixVersionCF = customFieldManager.getCustomFieldObjectByName("Fix Version")

List<Version> fixVersions = issue.getCustomFieldValue(fixVersionCF)

if(fixVersions == null) {
        invalidInputException = new InvalidInputException("Fix Version is required for this transition.");
}
