Custom fields in the contact module offer significant utility to many businesses as they enable the creation of fields that are relevant to their specific needs. Some commonly added fields in contacts include:
Contact TAX ID
Contact business number
Contact internal number (a number assigned within one of your current systems)
Type of client (e.g., wholesaler, distributor, etc.)
You have the flexibility to add as many fields as required, utilize various field types, and arrange them within the section as desired.
Once a custom field is added, it becomes accessible across all your contacts. These new fields can be viewed in modules like leads and quotes and can be utilized in lead forms.
