As the only Jira risk solutions both editable and non-editable Jira risk custom fields are supported. Editable are single select drop down options with Risk matrix impact and probability values and non-editable are read-only text fields for all risk values. Editable custom fields make it possible to enforce risk assessment on Jira issue creation outside the app.
Create Jira custom fields
The Jira risk custom fields must be manually created from within the app. Select global settings and then custom fields as per the picture below.
Non-editable custom fields

I see a risk custom field error message what to do?
If editable risk custom fields are assigned to an issue screen the app tries to set the custom fields impact and probability values. Below error message is shown if the custom fields values are not matching the issue risk matrix values. There are two ways to remove this error message.
Option 1: In global settings->custom fields. Remove the editable custom fields from the risk issue project issue screens. With this the app is not trying to write risk values to the custom fields
Option 2: The issue project risk register is not assigned to the editable risk custom fields risk model. So assign the risk register to the risk model (more info)
