Thank you, Claudia, for responding. Our form looks similar to yours and we use a default as well as customized forms.
However we were able to resolve the issue thanks to a tip from Kim Shepherd. The issue was with value-pairs used to populate this dropdown. Copying his tip here in case anyone else runs into a similar problem. We added the N/A value pair and after that the dc.type mandatory status kicked in. Kim: "... i suspect what might be happening is that even though it is *required*, the first value in the dropdown essentially becomes the default so it is not considered to have been skipped 5:37 PM <https://dspace-org.slack.com/archives/C3V628QNN/p1564090624037900> the language value-pairs gets around this with a top value-pair that has no stored value: 5:37 PM <https://dspace-org.slack.com/archives/C3V628QNN/p1564090627038100> <pair> <displayed-value>N/A</displayed-value> <stored-value></stored-value> </pair> Thank you, Mariya On Fri, Jul 26, 2019 at 4:18 AM Claudia Jürgen < claudia.juer...@tu-dortmund.de> wrote: > Hello Mariya, > > we work with 5.4+ and JSPUI and it works fine. > > In the form you are actually using for the collection (you may have > configured multiple forms) do you got a field like this? > <field> > <dc-schema>dc</dc-schema> > <dc-element>type</dc-element> > <dc-qualifier></dc-qualifier> > <repeatable>false</repeatable> > <label>Type (DCMI Type)</label> > <input-type > value-pairs-name="dcmi_types">dropdown</input-type> > <hint>Select the type(s) of content of the item.
