Extending Products with Custom Fields
Custom fields let you track any additional data specific to your business that isn't covered by the standard product fields.
Creating Custom Fields
- Go to Settings → Custom Fields (or the Custom Fields tab on the Products page)
- Click Add Custom Field
- Configure the field:
| Setting | Description |
|---|---|
| Name | Field label (e.g., "Finish Type") |
| Field Type | Text, Number, Select, Date, or Boolean |
| Options | For Select fields, define the dropdown choices |
Using Custom Fields
Once defined, custom fields appear on every product's edit form. You can:
- Set values when creating or editing products
- Filter products by custom field values
- Include custom fields in CSV exports
- Display custom field columns on the product list page

Note: Custom fields are available on all plans. The number of custom fields you can create depends on your subscription tier.
