Click on “Manufacturing Orders Custom Fields” tab.
Select the type of field you want from the list on the left, such as (Single Line, Multi Line, Number, Dropdown, Checkbox, Date, etc.).
Long-click the desired field and drag it to the empty space to display the position of the field on the screen.
There are two main types of fields:
Static Fields: These are fields with a clear and predefined value. You can either set them yourself or allow the user to enter their preferred value, or provide a set of options for them to choose from.
Dynamic Fields: These fields are linked to your databases, such as client names or products. This allows you to choose from the database, and the options displayed are updated automatically as you modify the databases (e.g., a new product added to the system will appear in a dynamic dropdown list without needing manual entry).
