Introduction
The property custom field is an essential feature that allows you to tailor each property to your specific needs. This feature ensures that different property types contain the precise information required to manage tasks successfully.
Platform
Property custom fields within the platform allow for detailed property configuration and management.
Supported Field types
Type | Description |
Select | Set up multiple options for ticket reporters to select, but they can only select one option. |
Multi-select | Set up multiple options for ticket reporters to select more than options. |
Number input | Set up a number-only field for ticket reporters to input numbers. |

Remember, you can determine if the field should be required or optional. You can always edit this even after creation. However,
Once the custom field is created, you cannot change the field type again. You will need to create a new one.
