How to use custom fields to track new data
Custom fields allow you to add a new type of data field to your records. It is unique to the user only. These are data that Invelo doesn't have but you want to track within Invelo. Once created, this field will be added to all of your records.
Custom fields are available on Paid plans only. Upgrade here.
