Hi All
I have created 2 Custom Fields by going to the cog in the top right of the screen then Issues then Custom Fields - It says the fields are created - See image.

I now go to my backlog and from the left menu I choose Project Settings then Issue Types and select an issue type
My expectation was that I would be able to select the fields I had previously created and add them to each of the issue types in the list BUT... I can't see them on the right hand side of the screen (or anywhere else) to select them?

I know that I could create these Custom fields in each of the Issue types individually but that seems wasteful to me... It would seem better to create them once and then use them in multiple issue types?
So my question is - How do I use my centrally created custom fields in each of the different issue types?
I'm also not sure if I add them individually to each issue type and then populate the information when using the field, what happens if we change the issue type during the course of working with the issue? Say change it from User Story to Task?
Again my thought was that if I used the centrally created custom fields that it would preserve that information even if the issue type changed throughout the life of the issue!
HELP!!!
