I have a custom field that I made required. The problem is that even if I don't assign the field to a particular screen, the Create screen still requires a value to be placed in the field. What I want to accomplish is having the required custom field assigned only to a View/Edit screen and able to create an issue while bypassing entering a value in the field as long as its not displayed on the Create screen.
You don't, in plain JIRA, the mandatory flag is on or off for an issue type, it's nothing to do with screens.
You can
