Custom Fields
Create and manage custom fields for Contacts, Companies, Leads, and Deals.
Custom Fields
The Custom Fields module allows you to extend your CRM by adding custom data fields to different modules such as Contacts, Companies, Leads, and Deals.
Use custom fields to capture unique information relevant to your business.
You can access this from:
Settings → Workspace → Custom Fields
Modules
The overview page lists all modules that support custom fields:
- Contacts
- Companies
- Leads
- Deals
Each row shows how many custom fields currently exist for that module.
Click a module to manage its custom fields.
Managing Custom Fields
When selecting a module (e.g., Contacts), you’ll see a list of all custom fields created for that module.
If no custom fields exist, the page displays a No Custom Fields message with an option to create your first field.
To create a new field, click:
+ Create Custom Field
