Issue
The Advanced Roadmaps For Jira application (ARJ) comes with its own set of Custom Fields which are required for this application to work correctly:
- Parent Link
- Team
- Target start
- Target end
- Original story points
By default, these custom fields are locked and cannot be deleted via the UI, unless they are manually unlocked via UPDATE queries in the Database (as per https://confluence.atlassian.com/jirakb/unlock-a-locked-jira-software-server-or-data-center-custom-field-779158866.html).
The problem is that, if these fields are deleted via the UI by accident, they are not automatically re-created by ARJ upon a restart of Jira.
As a result, if any of these fields is deleted:
- some ARJ functionalities will not work
- these fields will need to be re-created manually via the Database through INSERT queries
Suggestion
Add the ability for ARJ to rebuild any missing custom field upon a Jira restart.
