These options are case insensitive, so when using a select or multi-select list for a notification scheme, JIRA-ADMINISTRATORS will match the jira-administrators group. This means you cannot have both a JIRA-ADMINSITRATORS and a jira-administrators option, as they have the same name.
To edit a custom field's options: (NIE WIEM CO TO I NIE MOGE TEGO ZNALEZC DLA SECURE FIELDOW)
- Navigate to the Custom Fields page, locate the desired custom field and choose cog icon > Configure.
- Locate the relevant context (there will usually only be one, named 'Default Configuration Scheme for ...'), and click the Options link in the right-hand column. The 'Edit Custom Field Options' page will be displayed (see below). Here you can:
- Select from the Edit parent select list drop-down to choose which list to edit. (For a Cascading Select List only)
- Click Sort alphabetically to automatically re-order the options alphabetically.
- Click the arrows in the Order column, or specify a number and click the Move button, to re-order the options manually.
- Click Edit to change the text of an option.
- Click Disable to hide an option so that it is no longer available for selection. Options that have been used cannot be removed (to preserve data integrity), but due to changing business requirements, they may become invalid over time and so you may wish to make them unavailable for new issues.
- Click Delete to remove an option. (This will only be possible for options that have not been used.)

Troubleshooting custom fields
Using the JIRA admin helper
The JIRA admin helper can help you diagnose why a custom field is not showing on your screens. This tool is only available to JIRA administrators.
To diagnose why a custom field is not showing on the View Issue, Edit Issue or Create Issue screens:
- Navigate to the View Issue, Edit Issue or Create Issue screen where the field is not showing.
- If you are viewing an issue, click More Actions > Where is my field? If you are creating or editing an issue, click Configure Fields > Where is my field?
- Enter the name of the field.
- Click Submit.
Tip: You can also access the 'Where is my field?' dialog via the cog menu for each issue in the issue navigator.
Changing the description of a custom field
Not changing the description in a field configuration means that any changes you make to a custom field's description are not seen.
JIRA allows you to define a description of a custom field, and if the field configuration descriptions are left empty then the original description text will appear when you create or edit an issue, and as help text in the Issue Navigator. However you can also define different description texts in each field configuration and this will override the original field description text.
