The fields that are activated will appear for data entry on the Part Custom Fields form which is a setup tab on the Parts setup form.
Fields are activated by typing in a label in the text box to the right of the Custom Field that will be used. If your company is using QuoteWerks, the Part Custom Fields are exported to QuoteWerks. The data saved in these fields may be used for reporting purposes.
You may set up tables, which will provide the User with a drop-down list of choices, money, text, date, or check box fields. You may also define whether a field is required. If a field is checked as required, the User setting up a new Part or modifying an existing Part will be required to make a selection or enter information into all required fields.
You also have the option of defining what words will appear on the Custom fields tab on the Part form. This is entered in the Label field at the top of this setup form.
If you choose to set up Table fields you will need to set up the choices that you would like to appear in the drop-down list for your Users.
If a label is entered into any of the Table fields, you will then go to the corresponding Part Custom Field Table to enter the selectable choices in the Custom Fields Table 1 (Part), Custom Fields Table 2 (Part) or Custom Fields Table 3 (Part).
