How to Define Custom Fields in a Database

In the upper left side menu, click “Databases” to open the list of databases.

Select the desired database to view its records.

2nd Step: Opening Module Settings

1. Select the database by clicking on its tile.
2. In the upper right corner, click the “Module Settings” button represented by the Gear Icon.
3. In the “Update Database” modal, scroll to the “Custom Fields” section.

1. Click “Add New Field”.
2. In the “Create Custom Field” modal, in the “Field” tab, fill in:

• Label: name that will be displayed to users (e.g., “Due Date”).
• Type: select the data type (Text, Number, Date, Select, etc.).
• Layout: choose Single (one column) or Double (two columns).
• Placeholder: example text displayed when the field is empty.
• Mask: optional formatting pattern (e.g., (000) 000-0000).
• Is Field Required?: enable if the field must be filled.
• Is Field Read Only?: enable if it cannot be edited after creation.

1. In the “Visibility” tab, configure when the field should appear:

• Field: choose the controlling field (e.g., “Status”).
• Operator: select the condition (Equal, Not Equal, Contains, Does Not Contain, etc.).
• Value: define the value that triggers visibility (e.g., “In Progress”).

• Use clear and consistent labels to improve searchability.
• Define only essential rules to avoid overloading the interface.
• Test each field by creating records in different scenarios to validate visibility.
• Document fields and their rules internally for future reference.
