Manage required fields

The piplanning app synchronizes those fields:

Team Level (Team Board)

  • ALM-Key
  • Sticky Type
  • Text
  • Story Points
  • Iteration

Program Level (Backlog Board and Program Board)

  • ALM-key
  • Sticky Type
  • Text
  • Priority


If you have required fields on Issue Types which are not covered above, you must either make the fields optional or set default values in Jira for those fields. If you do not want to do that or can no do that change in Jira, follow along this guide for default fields for teamboard issues: Set default field values for Team Board issues

Required Field

On the Issue Type Bug, you have the "Behavior"-field defined as required.

Set Default Value

Go to Jira Settings | Issues | Custom fields and open the context for required fields. Press "Create, edit or delete contexts".

Set a Default Value for all required fields on Issue Types you want to be synchronized by the piplanning app.
