I have a Jira screen I'm presently making and I need to make one field mandatory but only if a related proceeding field has a value.

i.e. If Fieldx != none then Fieldy is mandatory.

Can anyone help?

Thanks

Mike

you need to write a workflow validator like I mentioned in the link

@Bharadwaj Jannu the validator option works but only at creation time. What if the dependent field changes via an Edit operation?
