Field builder

The field builder lets users create custom fields and use them in their projects.

Adding fields

To add a custom field, follow these steps:

1. Go to Customization → Project fields.

2. Select Edit project fields.

3. In the window that opens, select Add field.

4. Select one of the options:

   • Create a new field—this option opens the new-field creation window, where you need to enter the parameters for the field;
   • Use an existing field—this option opens the new-field creation window with the parameters set when the existing field was added.

   

5. Enter the parameters for the field:

   • Name;
   • Type—you can select one of the following types:
     • Text;
     • Long text;
     • Link;
     • Date;
     • Checkbox;
     • User;
     • User list;
   info

   Only system users who have permission to view users can change the User and User list fields.

   • Number;
   • File;
   info

   You can upload only one file for the File parameter. Set restrictions for file types and sizes in the system configuration file.

   • Required field;

6. If needed, change whether the field is required using the Required toggle.
