Andy Jewell (242●3●61●74) | asked Jan 02 '14, 12:26 p.m. edited Jan 02 '14, 12:27 p.m.  I have created a custom work item type and a custom enumeration.  I can add that custom enumeration to my new type with no problem but when I create a new work item of that type, the drop down list does not appear on that field, it just says "no items" and is read-only. A couple other things that seem suspicious:  1) when I add the enumeration to the custom type, it does not appear in the "reuse existing attribute" section.  However, if I create a new attribute, it does allow me to choose the type of the attribute to be the new enumeration I had created.  2) when I use the  "check usages of this enumeration in the repository" option, it tells me the enumeration is NOT in use.  However, on the custom type itself when I "check attribute usages in the repository" it says "work items in the repository contain all the configured attributes". I've read the "customizing work items" section and it seems I did everything by the process.  Any other ideas what the problem might be? - Andy Comments Eric Jodet commented Jan 07 '14, 7:50 a.m. JAZZ DEVELOPER  regarding 2) when I use the  "check usages of this enumeration in the repository" option, it tells me the enumeration is NOT in use this operations checks if any already existing work item is using the given attribute. Since you have problems with your enum, assume that no work item has this attribute. So I would say : expected.
