Configuring custom fields

To configure custom fields of devices:

1. In the Repositories folder of the console tree, select the Hardware subfolder.
2. In the workspace of the Hardware folder, click the Additional actions button and select Configure custom data fields in the drop-down list.

   The hardware properties window opens.

3. In the hardware properties window, select the Custom fields section and click the Add button.

   The Add field window opens.

4. In the Add field window, specify the name of the custom field that will be displayed in the hardware properties.

   You can create multiple custom fields with unique names.

5. Click OK.

The custom fields that have been added are displayed in the Custom fields section of the hardware properties. You can use custom fields to provide specific information about devices. For example, this could be the internal order number for a hardware purchase.
