Due date is not available in custom field’s list

[Becky]

Hi,

I recently noticed that the “Due Date” field is not available in the custom fields list. While I understand that this field cannot be customized, other standard fields appear as locked but are still visible in the list. Does anyone know why this happens?

I think you are talking about administration section under secure/admin/ViewCustomFields.jspa ? You won't find other fields like summary or description there as well. Maybe because they are system fields that are normally shown. That's why i use a custom list of all custom fields so i can be sure that i found all of them.

Thanks for this contribution, theses fields used to appear in the search and while adding in screens, but now they only appear in layout, but due date is not always available and I didn’t found the motive
