# Custom Fields Configuration
Custom fields allow administrators to extend Zluri’s data model by storing additional metadata beyond default attributes. Use custom fields to capture organization-specific information and apply it consistently across entities.
## **Supported Entities**
Zluri supports custom fields for the following entities:
* **Applications**
* **Users**
* **Departments**
* **Vendors**
* **Contracts**
* **Transactions**
Each entity maintains its own set of custom fields. Fields apply only within the entity where they are created.
## **Adding a Custom Field**
1. Go to **Settings → Custom Fields**.
2. Select the entity to extend.
3. Click **+ Add New Field**.
4. Select a **Field Type**.
5. Enter a **Field Name**.
6. Configure field-specific options, if applicable.
7. Click **Add Field**.
8. In the confirmation dialog, click **Add Field** again to confirm.
The field becomes available immediately for the selected entity.
## **Field Types**
Zluri supports the following field types:
### **Text Box**
Stores free-form text.
### **Dropdown**
Stores a single value selected from a predefined list.
### **Boolean**
Stores a Yes/No value.
Zluri automatically provides **Yes** and **No** as options.
### **Date Picker**
Stores a date value.
### **Number**
Stores a numeric value, including whole numbers, negative numbers, and decimals.
### **Zluri Entity**
Creates a reference to another Zluri entity (for example, User or Application).
## **Editing and Deleting Custom Fields**
Click an existing custom field to open the edit dialog.
From this dialog, you can:
* Update the **Field Name**
* Delete the field
Deleting a custom field removes it from all records where it was populated.
## **User attributed data sources**
Zluri supports optional integration mapping **only for User custom fields**.
When editing a **User** custom field, you can connect it to an integration under **Connect this custom field to an integration (Optional)**.
Configuration steps:
1. Open the User custom field.
2. Select an **Integration Name**.
3. Choose **Schema Key** or **Function** as the mapping type.
4. Select the corresponding **Field Name** from the integration.
5. Review the **Sample JSON Data** to confirm the mapped value.
6. Click **Edit Changes**.
7. In the confirmation dialog, click **Save Changes** to confirm.
When configured, Zluri syncs the custom field value from the mapped integration attribute after the next sync.
This option does **not** appear for Applications, Contracts, Vendors, Departments, or Transactions.
## **Where Custom Fields Appear**
After creation, custom fields appear across the platform:
* As columns in list views
* As filters in tables
* In exports
* In workflows as conditions and variables
* In dashboards and insights, where applicable
Custom fields follow the visibility and access rules of their parent entity.
