"Root causes" is not a system field, so it must be a custom field.

Log in as an admin, go to Admin -> Issues -> Custom fields, look for "root causes" and configure it.  You'll find it has a list of options you can add/delete/edit

Hi @Rajdeep Singh 

It seems like you are referring to a select list custom field. The options in that can be managed by your Jira Administrator. In case you have admin rights then go to Admin | Issues | Custom fields (under FIELDS), find the field and modify it.

Hi @Rajdeep Singh welcome to the Atlassian community.

Could you clearly explain your query. And share a screenshot showing the "root cause" categories for better assistance.
