Custom fields

Less Annoying CRM comes with basic default fields that let you enter in the core details about every contact and company that you add to your CRM account. Oftentimes, you need to track additional information, or need industry-specific fields to fill out for your records. That's where custom fields come in.

Custom fields are found on both your contact and company records, as well as your pipelines. These articles will guide you through how to create custom fields on your account (if you're an administrator, or the only user on the account!) to store and track any piece of information that you need!
