Editing custom fields
Edit the definition of an existing custom field without affecting values already assigned to objects.
Change the definition of a custom field.
Context
Any changes that you bring to the definition of a custom field don't affect existing assignments. Specifically, when you change the definition, the field name and values, which are already set on objects, remain unchanged.
Prerequisites
- Only Administrators can create and configure custom fields.
Steps
- Open your project in Test Manager.
- Navigate to Project Settings and then to Custom field definitions.
- Select More Options for a custom field, and then Edit.
Note:
- You can't select a custom field to support an object type if another custom field with the same name already supports that type. For instance, if you have a custom field named Priority, which can be assigned to Requirements and Test cases, then a custom field with the same name can only be assigned to the remaining object type, which is Test sets.
- For custom fields of type Label, you can only add or remove possible values, but not rename the existent ones.
- Change the configuration and select Save to confirm.
Result
The custom field definition reflects your changes.
