Creating custom fields

Custom fields can be used to record additional information about your items. Examples of how you might name custom fields are Warranty, ID No., and Manufacturer. However, unlike custom lists, custom fields cannot be used to filter inventory reports.

You can create up to three custom fields.

To name a custom field

1	Go to the Lists menu and choose Custom Lists & Field Names and then Items. The Custom List and Field Names window appears.

2	In the Name of Custom Field fields, type the names and click OK.

These field names will appear on the Item Details tab of the Item Information window for all items.

Printing custom field entries on purchases and invoices

You can customize your invoices and purchases to include the custom fields. For more information, see ‘Customizing forms’.
