Issue Summary
When you look for a custom field or status in JQL, Jira shows duplicated the fields but there is no clue to identify which project belongs to.
Steps to Reproduce
- Add a custom field with the same name in Next-Gen Project and classic
- Go to the Advanced search page and try to filter by this custom field
- The custom field appears two times, which is good but there is not a description to identify which is the project it belongs to.
- Same thing for statuses.
Expected Results
Display the project it belongs to.
Or
Display the custom field/status description.
Actual Results
Nothing is displayed:
Workaround
Quote the name and specify the project in the JQL sentence.

[JRACLOUD-74037] Issue search should distinguish between custom fields that have the same name
Would be great to indicate or diffrintiate between COMPANY MANAGED PROJECTS to TEAM MANAGED PROJECT statuses. It's very frustrating to choose a status on my instance right now.
Dear,
Strong request to solve this problem as it pollutes the look & feel for the End users, and does not encourage the acceptance of the Jira solution for our Business users
Thank you
Best regards,
Rutger
The worse scenario is that Statuses are duplicated. Imagine 50 NG projects all w/ To Do, In Progress, Done. How would this even be manageable? Hopefully I have this wrong. Fortunately I don't use NG much at all.
I would see this in opposite way: do not show duplicated names at all, just show only one name without any pre/post suffix/differentiator. You want to search a FancyField in Project1? So 'project = Project1 and FancyField = value'. You want to search everywhere? so just 'FancyField = value'. Make it simpler and more universal and do not differentiate such fields. Differentiate them makes a filters/automations maintenance a nightmare.
