Why can’t I make a field required in FogBugz?

Hi, Can I set certain fields in FB as mandatory, so users must input a value? Can I set custom fields as mandatory?

Thanks

In general, the philosophy of FogBugz is to get in the way of the user as little as possible, which means that no fields are mandatory. To that end, I don't believe there is a way to make any of the default fields mandatory, nor is there a way to do so for custom fields. Finally, while I cannot speak for FogCreek, I would be very surprised if they decided to change this theme and allow for fields to be made mandatory, so don't hold your breath waiting for this "feature"

The answer is no. Please see this question for more information on this design decision.

Update by Fog Creek: make sure to look at this BugMonkey solution.

You could use this BugMonkey script to add some javascript to make it very hard, but not impossible, for users to submit a bug without filling in a field.
