Custom Fields
Club-defined fields added to members and aircraft without any schema change.
What it is
Custom Fields let you add extra data fields to members and aircraft without changing the database. Each such field — for example a member’s number in the national aero club, or an aircraft’s serial number — is recorded alongside the built-in fields.
Each field has one of four types: text, number, date, or yes/no. New fields can be added at any time, with no technical work.
How to use it
- Define a field — custom fields are created separately for members and for aircraft.
- Choose a type — text, number, date, or yes/no, according to the nature of the data.
- Required fields — a field can be set as required.
- Record values — fill the fields in on each member or aircraft record.
- Use in rule conditions — aircraft custom fields are available in pricing-rule conditions; member custom fields are available in the conditions of qualification rules, penalties, and periodic transactions.
