I have made a custom field a required field but it is not showing or acting as one

[Deanne Wilson]

I created a custom field, linked it to the proper screen, and made it a required field in the Issues--> View Field Configuration page. It shows on the screen. However, it is now showing or acting like a required field on that screen.

Please advise as to what could be the issue.

Thank you in advance.

Did you added 

That field configuration with issue type in "Field Configuration Scheme" ? 

Associate that "Field Configuration scheme "  to project ?

That was the missing step. Thank you so much. :)

Hi Deanne,

Just to be sure, your project is a classic one, not next-gen, right?

If so, can you check if the field configuration is active for the project - issue type combination.
