⚠️ Note: This feature is not available on all plans. To check if it’s included in your subscription, review the [plan comparison list] or contact your admin. If the feature isn’t available, you may need to upgrade your plan.

Setting up these mandatory fields for issues can only be done by a project leader.

To set fields as mandatory follow the next steps:

  1. As a project leader, login to your BIMcollab space and navigate to your project settings

  2. Go to the tab 'General'

  3. Click on 'Mandatory fields' and select all fields you wish to add make mandatory

  4. Click Save

Once set, any team member who creates or edits an issue will be notified that a field must be filled in. Also, the ‘not set’ options will be removed from the pull-down lists.
When trying to save the issue without having filled in the mandatory fields, the "save" button remains greyed out until all the mandatory fields have been entered.
