@kranthi2 There are multiple ways using which a field can be made mandatory
1. Dictionary: Mandatory, Read only can be set via field dictionary (You have already attached the screenshot for the same.)
2. UI Policy: Check if there is any UI Policy defined on your incident table which is making Issue location field as mandatory
3. Client Script: Check if there is any Client script defined on your incident table which is making the issue location field as mandatory.
Hope this helps.

I have checked all the possible ways which are mentioned below:
Client scripts
Ui policies and Dictionary level configuration but nothing is there.
Is there any way we can check it.
Even i created a onLoad client script as well in the incident form. it is also not working as expected.

@kranthi2 Could you please check your Issue Location is the OOTB field location field on the incident table. Also, Location field is actually defined on the parent Task (task) table. Please check if on your task table location has been made mandatory at any of the following levels.
1. Dictionary
2. Client script
3. UI Policy

Hi @kranthi2 ,
If it is becoming mandatory on load of the form like when u submit or open a record n it's mandatory then please check if there is any UI policy (onLoad) or client script(onLoad) present. That should be causing it.
Thanks,
Danish
