Custom Fields

I added a custom field called "Vendor Type" which I have used several times before, but the list of options no longer appears to select from when entering a new vendor or editing an existing vendor. We recently integrated QBO with Bill.com. Could that have affected custom fields in any way? What could be the reason the options are no longer available to choose from?
