About Custom Fields
Oracle CRM On Demand supplies the default fields that most organizations require. However, you might find fields in your existing records that do not have the corresponding fields in the records in Oracle CRM On Demand. In this case, you can create new fields, called custom fields, to support the unique needs of your company. This need might arise when you have existing records that you want to import into Oracle CRM On Demand.
Custom fields:
- Can be used in assignment rules, reports, filtered lists, and targeted search
NOTE: For performance reasons, some custom fields cannot be used to sort lists.
- Cannot be deleted
- Cannot be viewed until they are explicitly added to custom page layouts
- Are not inherited from one record type to another
For example, a custom field you added for leads is not automatically carried over to opportunities when that lead is converted to an opportunity.
Custom fields for lead records must be mapped if you want them to transfer when a lead is converted to an opportunity, account, or contact.
- Cannot be viewed by other users until they sign in again
- Can be referenced by Web links, Web services, and other integration technologies
The following table shows you how many new fields you can add to Oracle CRM On Demand. The data pertains to available fields for most record types; that is, you can add 100 new picklist fields for accounts, 100 for contacts, 100 for opportunities, and so on. The maximum number of values (active or disabled) in a picklist is 1000.
