Custom fields in saved searches

Hi all,
We have one global custom field, ‘type’, and several other custom fields
that only apply to one queue. When we make a saved search for our sales
reps so they can see tickets that apply to the customers they manage, we
can’t include any custom fields in the criteria or display except ‘type’. I
know this is because the other fields aren’t global, but how do we get RT
to include these fields? These reps all have access to the queue to which
the fields belong, so I’m not sure why they (the fields) won’t show up
anywhere in the search builder interface. I can’t even write them in,
although given how many different ways there seem to be to write in a CF, I
could just be doing it wrong. Thanks for any suggestions.

The per-queue CFs will show up, in the Search Builder interface, once
you restrict your query to that queue - ie. add a Queue is “Blah”
predicate.
