Could we mark the organisation field with a red asterisk since it is a required field when creating an account?
It has been suggested by the user that this would be useful.

Yes that is an easy fix. @raycarrick-ed or @martaribeiro I'm not sure which repository would be applicable here the shared DMPRoadmap/roadmap codebase has it set to be a required field already.

Here's the line in your fork. Just change required to true:

@pherterich @magdalenadrafiova As @briri has said this appears fixed in Roadmap. Also I can't see issue on Live sites e.g.,

@johnpinto1 strange :) seems to be be deployed now - except one of our customers on their own instance. I have raised an internal ticket for that one missing client and closing this here as all seems to work well :)

Initially the organisation wasn't a required field. We felt that anybody, including people in-between jobs, recent graduates, etc could use the tool. In practice, organisations are driving the requirement for DMPs and the way the tool has evolved makes it easier if we ask for an organisation of some sort. Remember we also have organisation 'Other' but it seems to be a well kept secret.
