Hi Mehdi, I think MULTI user is the issue as JIRA can only assign an issue to one user at a time by design. If you want at assign an issue to more than one user there are some workarounds documented at http://confluence.atlassian.com/display/JIRA/How+do+I+assign+issues+to+multiple+users

Hope that helps, Andrew.

It should work fine. How is your permission scheme setup? Make sure the user custom field has the Assignable User permission. Also, the assign field will appear only if you have Assign permission. Both are two different permissions.

No, that is not a problem. See http://confluence.atlassian.com/display/JIRA/Managing+Project+Permissions for details on the 2 permissions mentioned above.
