Custom Fields are an easy way to individualize your InLoox account. You can create custom fields for InLoox Projects, Tasks, Mindmap nodes, Planning, Time, Documents, Budgets and (Budget) Line Items. 

You can select from the following types of custom fields:

  • String: for text
  • Datetime: for dates
  • Integer
  • Decimal
  • Boolean: for checkboxes
  • List
  • Currency

Per default, a custom field is always visible. If you want to change that, you need to set a specific rule for the display of a custom field in a given section of InLoox. You may also set a default value for the custom field.

PLEASE NOTE In order to create custom fields, you must have admin-permissions for your InLoox account. Custom Fields are only available in the InLoox Enterprise and InLoox On-Prem Editions.
