I can’t see a particular saved field while editing a template via Manage Template

Jira Data Center

Fields are not associated with proper screens or project/global context

  1. Go to custom fields, find the field

  2. Click “…” menu → Associate to screens

  3. Try associating with Default Issue screen

  4. If that won’t work - find the original project from which the tempalte was created and associate custom fields to issue screen of that project

You may also want to check Scope where the field s defined to be used. And it should be global.
