Repeating Issues app allow to edit system and custom field values when setup repeating actions. To edit custom fields please clicking on "More..." link on repeating issue dialog - this will load fields that can be edited for given issue type.
Only fields added to create/edit screens associated with given issue type will be available for edition. When you can't find your custom field you can add it directly to an issue (Issue view > Admin > Add field) or configure screens for custom fields (Jira Administration > Issues > Custom Fields > cog icon > Configure).
For more details how to create and configure custom fields please check Jira documentation.
All fields will have simple form input where static value or dynamic value can be provided - see Velocity Template Language in Repeating Issues app.
Special velocity variable for custom field
Each custom field has special variable $this available in velocity context. This is just the current field id (e.g. 'custom field_100001') and this can be used e.g. together with Issue.getCustomField(<fieldId>) method.
