Custom Fields¶

In custom fields you can create customized fields such as divisions, capabilities, titles and others that can help you describe the users and the relationship within your company.

You can define Custom Fields according to your company’s needs. The field can also be used as filters in the clients.

A new custom field is not visible in clients until the client is restarted.
