I've created custom fields. Now how do I see them when creating a task? I've tried associating them with screens, but they don't show up in my projects or tasks/stories/etc.

Hi @Chris Beaman ,

After creating custom fields and adding them to a screen, make sure that the projects and/or issue types are added to the context of the custom field (if there's already a context)

Are you trying to add those fields to a company-managed or team-managed project?

Have the custom fields been added to the create issue screen of the screen scheme linked to issue type Task?

I've added the "Can I delegate this task? (yes or no)" field to every screen in every context and it is still not showing 

> Have the custom fields been added to the create issue screen of the screen scheme linked to issue type Task?

How do I do this? I can't seem to figure out how.

@Chris Beaman  you have to add those fields on your Task/stories screen

Please follow the steps mentioned in this documentation

Thanks Sakina. Will you please look at these screenshots - are you recommending I do something that I am missing here?
