'Issue' is changing to 'work item'. You might notice some inconsistencies while this big change takes place.

Add a custom field to a screen

 

You can control which screens the custom field will appear on when a work item is created, edited or transitioned through workflow. Follow these steps to change which screens your custom field is associated with: 

  1. Select > Work items.

  2. Under FIELDS, click Custom fields.

  3. Find the custom field and click  > Associate to Screens. Alternatively, you can click a field's contexts link and then click Screens > Associate this field to screens.

  4. Check the screens on which you want to display this custom field.

  5. To add more screens or remove screens, click a field's screens link and then click Screens > Add or remove associated screens.

The work item view uses the View work item screen scheme to determine which fields to show. To add or remove a custom field, head to your project, Choose Settings > Screens, then select the View work item screen scheme and remove the field.
