Editing a Custom Field for Inventory

Use the following procedure to edit the attributes that define a custom field for inventory. This procedure also allows you to disable or re-enable a custom field. If you intend only to disable or re-enable the field, refer to Disabling or Re-enabling a Custom Field for Inventory.

To edit a custom inventory field, do the following:

  1. Follow the instructions in Step 1 in Creating a Custom Field for Inventory to access the Administration page.

  2. On the Administration page, select the System Settings tab.

  3. From the list of custom fields In the Custom Fields for Inventory section, locate the field whose attributes you want to edit, and click the icon in the Action column at the end of the row.

    The Edit Custom Field dialog opens.

  4. Update the field attributes as needed. For a description of each attribute, see Attributes Used to Define a Custom Field for Inventory.

  5. Click Save to update the custom field definition with your changes. Your changes are reflected in the list of custom fields in the Custom Fields for Inventory section on System Settings tab.

    These changes might also affect the availability of the custom field in Code Insight. For more information about the availability of the field once you save its definition, see Disabling or Re-enabling a Custom Field for Inventory.
