NetBox version

v3.6.3

Python version

3.10

Steps to Reproduce

  1. Create a Custom Field Choice:
    image
  2. Create a Custom Field for that choice (this was created to be visible for Device, Interface and Module type)
    image
  3. Create/Edit a Device/Interface/Module Type with this custom field
    image

Expected Behavior

The expected behaviour is to show the Label (Alpha) and not the Value (A)

Observed Behavior

UI shows the custom field value instead of the label. Label only shows in the drolist options (Edit UI). Also tested in other objects with identical behaviour
