Custom Fields
The document provides instructions for setting up and deleting custom fields in a user-defined maintenance system. Custom fields can record unique information, such as Date of Birth, and appear under the Extra tab on various pages like Assignment, Contact, and Employee. The setup process includes naming the field, selecting display options, making it mandatory, and choosing the data type. Deleting a custom field involves selecting it and confirming the deletion, with a reminder that it will be removed from all associated records.
