Contact custom fields

Contacts have their own set of custom fields, separate from the client's — the best time to call someone, whether they have a gate remote. Every contact has the same set.

Who can do this

Filling them in: anyone who can edit the contact, within their Custom Field View Level and Custom Field Edit Level. Adding, changing and deleting the fields: Manage Custom Fields.

Fill them in

Open the client, go to the Contacts tab and edit the contact. Contact custom fields are at the bottom of the form, under Custom Fields. Click Save Changes when you're done.

The Custom Fields part of the Edit Contact window, with Add Field, Best time to call showing an orange Mornings label, Has a gate remote with a ticked checkbox, and the Cancel and Save Changes buttons

Filled-in contact fields also show on the contact's card in the Contacts tab — for example Best time to call: Mornings.

Manage them

Contact fields are added, changed and deleted from the same contact form, in the same way as client fields. They use the same access levels.

Contact fields can be text, numbers, amounts, dates, checkboxes, choices and locations, plus headings, spacing and lines. Users, clients, files and buttons are for client fields only.

Deleting a contact field removes its values from every contact, and can't be undone.
