Using Indexed Custom FieldsTo optimize performance, you can use custom fields that have been indexed for specific record types. Indexed fields are special fields that improve the response time during the search process or sorting on a particular list. Indexed custom fields are preconfigured in the application database. You can change the labels on the indexed custom fields, but you cannot change the integration tags. NOTE: As an option, you can choose to migrate your data from nonindexed to indexed custom fields to increase the performance of the lists that your users execute. To migrate the existing data to the available record types, use Siebel CRM On Demand's export/import functionality or Web Services. Indexed custom fields are prefixed with Indexed as a default.

The existing Custom Object indexed fields can be displayed under the following assigned names:
