Is there a way to configure a custom field on Create Issue, or within the JIRA, so that the end user can't click on the drop down for it, but I can? I have a dropdown custom field that I need in the JIRA to link with another system, but I don't want any clients to see it as the dropdown shows other projects they don't need to know about. Is there any way to make a custom field only visible to me and not the end user? Thanks!

Not natively, because Jira doesn't do field level security.

See jira.atlassian.com/browse/jra-1330 , but also look for the Behaviours plugin which makes setting this up a LOT more easy than writing your own javascript or custom fields https://studio.plugins.atlassian.com/wiki/display/JBHV/JIRA+Behaviours+Plugin
