How it works…
When a field is marked as required, JIRA will check to make sure the field has a value
when you are making updates to the issue, such as an edit or during a workflow transition.
This validation is applied even if the field is not present on the screen, so make sure you do
not make a field that is not required on screen, otherwise users will not be able to complete
the action.
Certain fields such as
Assignee
and
Due Date
require the user to have certain permissions
to make updates. If the user does not have the necessary permissions, the validation will
fail and prevent the user from completing the action.
