Adding the ‘Resolution’ field to the edit screen forces it to be set on every issue change

      NOTE: This bug report is for JIRA Server. Using JIRA Cloud? See the corresponding bug report.

      When the ‘resolution’ field is added to the ‘Edit’ screen of a project, it becomes impossible to edit the issue without resolving it too. When the screen is open, setting the resolution is required and if it was previously unset, it will be set.

      Not choosing a resolution results in an error, since it is requires, as shown below:

      Also, there is no ‘Unresolved’ option to choose (the ‘Please select…’ is an invalid option):

      Steps to reproduce

      • Have a project
      • Add the ‘Resolution’ field to the edit screen
      • Create an issue
        • The ‘Resolution’ must not be set
      • Edit the issue
      • Change any field apart from ‘resolution’
      • It is not possible to change this field without setting the resolution

      This breaks the ‘edit’ function, because editing any field requires solving the issue.

      Workaround

      • Remove the resolution from this screen
