    Description

      Issue Summary

      When a custom field named like the same as a System field (i.e. "Status"). Within Jira automation both fields should be listed instead of just one (The system field)

      Steps to Reproduce

      1. Create a Custom field named the same as a System field (i.e. "Status")
      2. Go to Project settings > Automation > Create or Edit rule
      3. Use the "When Field value changed" trigger and select the field in question

      Expected Results

      Both fields are displayed (System field and Custom field) under the search field box, even though those are named like the same.

      Actual Results

      Only the System field appears, missing the Custom field within the field search list.

      Workaround

      Rename the custom field with a different name than the System field one
