TF51005: The query references a field that does not exist.

[ROHINITAGWALE]

When we try to migrate the shared queries from source DevOps organization to Target DevOps organization we are facing the issue: Error saving query 'Transition Planning', probably due to invalid area or iteration paths
Microsoft.TeamFoundation.WorkItemTracking.Client.InvalidQueryTextException: TF51005: The query references a field that does not exist. The error is caused by «[Custom.ApplicationID]». ---> Microsoft.TeamFoundation.WorkItemTracking.Client.Wiql.SyntaxException: TF51005: The query references a field that does not exist. The error is caused by «[Custom.ApplicationID]».
We are using the nkdagility tool. We are using Agile process in both source and destination.

Relevant log output

Error saving query 'Transition Planning', probably due to invalid area or iteration paths

[MrHinsh]

This is not due to Area or Iteration paths! As the error message states:

TF51005: The query references a field that does not exist. The error is caused by «[Custom.ApplicationID]»

You have a custom field in Source that does not exist in Target.
