Solution
The process that it is needed to display the 'Capability' field in the feature details panel is as follows:
Make sure that Capabilities are enabled in the Portfolio ( Settings > Platform > Portfolio Specific Configuration > select Portfolio > Enable Capabilities = Yes )
Create a program - the example is called "fedesolution3 (is a program)"
Fill in the "Solution" field with value 'YES'
Select a Portfolio
Finish to complete the fields requested for your configuration and Save the program (which creates a Solution)

NOTE: After creation the "fedesolution3 (is a program)" program appears like this

Create a new program - the example is called "fedeprogram_1 (for "fedesolution3 (is a program)")”:
Fill in the "Solution" field with value 'NO'
Select the same Portfolio as in the previous step
Select the ‘Solution’ field with the program created in previous step, "fedesolution3 (is a program)"
Finish to complete the fields requested for your configuration and Save

NOTE: After creation the "fedeprogram_1 (for "fedesolution3 (is a program)")" program appears like this

Create a feature and select in "Primary Program" field the value "fedeprogram_1 (for "fedesolution3 (is a program)")" that is the program created in the previous step

As result you will now see the Capability field in the feature details Panel
