      User is unable to search Customer Request Type from Issue Search Filters.

      When using the basic mode, the Customer Request Type is grayed and un-clickable. Hovering on top on it, shows an error that says :

      Customer Request Type is not applicable for the current project and /or issue type.

      It also does not work with JQL using the advance search option.

      I have verified this with my own machine.

      Workaround:

      Thanks efridge for the tips!

      Customer Request Type values follow the format of "key/lowercased-form-title-hyphenated", so it may be possible to guess.
      For example project key of "ITS":

      1. General Assistance = its/general-assistance
      2. Infrastructure Support = its/infrastructure-support
      3. Telecommunications / Telephones = its/telecommunications--telephones (notice the double hyphen on this one)

      I've also noticed that this value is determined when the form is FIRST created, and if you change the name of the form, it doesn't change the title. I've also seen some values that look like "req/its-request2" where it apparently added a number on the end to make it unique. I think that happened because I had two identically named forms when I first set up that project.
      Maybe that will help you reverse engineer things and get some queries working.

      PSQL Query that can be used to identify Customer Request type name formatting:

      select distinct stringvalue from customfieldvalue cfv
      where cfv.customfield = (select id from customfield where cfname = 'Customer Request Type') ;

            [JSDSERVER-1583] Not able to search filter Customer Request Type

            @stacy: In the newer JSD versions, the customer request type name should be as you've written it in your request type list. In your example this would be:

            .... AND ..."Customer Request Type" = "Information Systems"
            

            Unless you're using Microsoft SQL as a database. Then you'll have to wait for JSD 3.4.2. See more here: https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/JSDSERVER-3715

            In Service Desk server 3.3.0 I cannot search with the workaround.

            You cannot seem to search across multiple projects though e.g. the format is "<ProjectCode>/<Request Name>", but what if you want to search <Request Name> across all Projects?

            I guess the simple answer is: in ("<ProjectCode1>/<Request Name>", <ProjectCode2>/<Request Name>") etc. but wondering is there a global query that does not rely on explicitly adding every project
