  2. On the Administration page, select the System Settings tab.

    • The Edit Custom Field dialog opens.
  3. Update the field attributes as needed. For a description of each attribute, see Attributes Used to Define a Custom Field for Projects.

These changes might also affect the availability of the custom field in Code Insight. For more information about the availability of the field once you save its definition, see Disabling or Re-enabling a Custom Field for Projects.
