The easiest way I can think of would be to export the metadata for each of your communities, open it in Excel, find the metadata field you’re interested in (listed along the top row), then use Excel’s functionality to filter that column by blanks.
Instructions for exporting metadata in eg version 5.* are at https://wiki.duraspace.org/display/DSDOC5x/Batch+Metadata+Editing#BatchMetadataEditing-WebInterfaceExport (If you have a lot of communities so this would be onerous, and you’re confident with postgres and the database structure, you could alternatively run a query directly against the database. It’d be a fairly complex one though; I think in most cases using the export option would be easier.)

I need help. I'm having problems with our repository metadata harvesting. There are some items that are missing some metatada fields. What I need help with is the following: how do I find (other than checking each item one by one) which items lack a certain metadata field?
