    • Our product teams collect and evaluate feedback from a number of different sources. To learn more about how we use customer feedback in the planning process, check out our new feature policy.

      When configuring a new condition or validator in a workflow transition, users are prompted to choose a field from the drop-down menu (example screenshot below):

      The drop-down menu shows a limited list of fields to select from:

      What most users don't know is they can actually type in the field name and the drop-down text box will match that to a field, if that field can be used in the condition/validator:

      In my example above, the "Time Spent" field isn't listed in the drop-down menu but it can be selected if the user types in the field name manually.

      I suggest instead of prompting the user to "Choose field", this text may be updated to "Choose or type in field name"
