      Issue Summary

      The Flagged custom field is created after you first flag an issue in the Backlog. The field is not lock and allows editing. If you add a new context for the field with a new option, you won't be able to flag issues in any project associated with that new context. When attempting to do so, you'll receive a pop-up error in the UI to the effect of:

      Invalid value '10100' passed for customfield 'Flagged'.

      There are no errors logged to atlassian-jira.log or Catalina.out

      Environment

      Reproduced on Jira 7.6, 7.13, 8.4 on Linux.

      Steps to Reproduce

      1. Flag an issue on a backlog to create the Flagged custom field
      2. Add a new context for the field, define an option and associate to a project:
      3. Attempt to flag an issue on the backlog of the associated context

      Expected Results

      Issue should be flagged on the backlog.

      Actual Results

      Issue is not flagged & UI error thrown.

      Notes

      If this is expected behavior, the Flagged field should be locked to prevent editing of this nature.

      Workaround

      Currently there is no known workaround for this behavior. A workaround will be added here when available.
