Symptom

Label do not appear for Custom Fields.

Customizable field labels appear as "Customizable field 14" , "Customizable field 15"  etc. instead of the label that we have defined them in the data model.

It appears on several different areas on the system, e.g. in the RBP settings when trying to use them as filters, or in the Perf&Goals calibration session in the list view, as column headers.
