Idea: Different categories of Custom Fields - Manager Forum
The above idea was proposed by @generalegend and is similar to the one proposed by @Davide. It was posted to the forum 3 months earlier than @Davide 's idea.
At the moment the closest you can get to having a common custom field across different transaction types is to use Non-Inventory items in all transaction line items (where it is possible to do so). The custom field is created for Non-Inventory items and the data recorded in the custom field for each Non-inventory item is drawn into the transaction when selecting the Non-inventory item in the transaction line item.
However this cannot be done for all transactions such as:
- Inventory items
- Fixed assets
- Automated Depreciation entries
- Journal entries
