Allow Ability to Map Standard Fields to Custom Fields

We have a custom field for goals in the Idea ticket (where the requester must select which strategic goal their request ties to), but we can't map this field to the Goals field at the Feature level because they are both not custom fields.

 

We have this issue with a few other fields as well including the Brands field - which is used as the 'categories' field in the idea, but a custom field in the feature. Note, for this specifically - the reason we are using the categories field to indicate the brand is so that we can filter by brand on the ideas portal. As such, I have voted for this ticket  since that was a workaround https://big.ideas.aha.io/ideas/APP-I-1471.

    +1 for this specific to Personas and their links to Features / Master Features / Initiatives and vice-versa.

    I want the ability to select a persona for each feature (which I can do via a custom field), but when I go back to view that Persona, even if i add Features as a custom field there, I don't automatically get the features where I chose that Persona. So the custom fields become custom list-of-values fields, but there is no established actual relationship; it's just a display convention. I want the selection of Persona from a Feature (or Master Feature or Initiative) to be an actual relationship that I can see in both directions.

    I can "hack" around this by running a report against my feature list grouping by / sorting by personas, but that's not a great solution.

    This would be very useful so we do not duplicate the effort! One the main reasons we are using AHA is brecaus of the goals!

    Can this also be true for the reverse as well? In essence create a custom field and have it map to a standard field.

    Similar need - We have a custom field in Jira used to track story points, i'd like to map that to the Estimates field.
