Custom fields can be used to capture extra information that is not already built in to the Flex platform, for Contacts, Projects, and Designs. When you add a field, it will be available on all contacts, projects or designs. For example, you may always want to capture special information about a contact and there is no box available in the Flex platform by default. You should use a custom field to store this information.
- Access Admin area by clicking the cog icon at the bottom of the left hand menu bar
- Under Admin area select Custom settings.
