Description on Custom Field

Question

I recently created a custom field and inserted a comment in the description field, a note about who requested the field and why.  Now another user wants it removed.  I have updated the field and removed the description but the user can still see it.  Will it take time to populate through the system?  And will it update in issues that have already been created?

Hi John

I had removed the comment from the custom field setup, however I needed to

* go to Settings >> Issues >> Field configuration
* Open the "Default field configuration"
* Search for the custom field, you will get the products field in search result
* Select edit and remove the value from "Description" field

Thanks for your help.

Okay, I am confused. Is the comment in the description field? Or somewhere else?

No I don't, when I open an issue I only see the multi choice list entries.
