Import custom fields 

  1. Create a layout for the work item with the custom fields available in Zoho Projects for the data to be mapped correctly.
  2. The system auto-populates the data in custom fields in Zoho Sprints with the equivalent custom field in Zoho Projects in the field mapping screen.
  3. The picklist options of both Zoho Projects and Zoho Sprints should be the same to avoid data mismatch. For example, if a picklist field in Zoho Projects has options A, B, and C, the same picklist options must be available in the mapped Zoho Sprints picklist field.
