Custom fields in Operations

Main → Settings → Custom fields in Operations Premium

Your own fields on operation lines — a Supplier invoice No. on deliveries, a Lot number on sales. They’re separate from the fields on items, which live in Item fields. The custom fields guide walks the workflow; this page is the screen. StoDo Simple only for now.

The list

Action	What it does
+	Adds a field — the editor below opens.
Tap a row	Opens that field in the editor. Each row shows the field’s name, type, and Excel column.
Drag the handle	Changes the order of the fields.
Swipe left, or long-press	Delete — after “All data stored in this field will be deleted. Delete this field?”

The field editor

Setting	What it does
Name	The label on the operation line. Two fields can’t share a name.
Data type	String, Number, Date, or Multi-line text.
Use in Operations	One switch per type — Incoming, Outgoing, Stock-taking, Transfer. The field appears only on lines of the types switched on.
Excel column for Imp/Exp	The spreadsheet column that carries the field in imports and exports (Do not use to leave it out).

Good to know

• A new field starts with every Use in Operations switch off — switch on at least one type, or the field shows up nowhere.
• Values are per line, not per operation: each item line carries its own.
• Without Premium, the subscription offer appears as the screen opens, and again on adding or editing a field — what Premium covers.
