Field missing: Same Field Configuration, same screen scheme

Alexis Raptarchis

Hi, 

 this is slowly driving me mad... Here is the situation:

• Project A and Project B are sharing the same Field Configuration and the same Screen Scheme (neither of them is a "NextGen  Project").
• On Project A the field "Story Points" is visible.
• On Project B the field "Story Points" is not visible, even though it is configured under  "Issue Layout" on this Project. So the Project B is not oblivious to its existence.
• Updating the field configuration as Admin to add a previously unassociated field to the shared screen schema works. E.g. the new field is visible in both projects.

Project A is the older project, for which the schemas were set up, if that makes a difference.

What am I missing here? 

Kind Regards,

Alexis

If your projects have the same Field config scheme and Screen scheme, then the last reason a custom field such as Story points will go missing is that the field does not have a context for the project and/or issue type.

Go to admin -> issues -> custom fields and check for the contexts of story points.
