Optional Fields Screen

Overview

Use the Optional Fields screen to create system-wide optional fields for Sage 300. Once you have created optional fields for your system, you can add them to each of the applications in which you want to use them.

Optional fields let you customize Sage 300 by storing additional information with records and transaction details in any or all of the Sage 300 applications you use.

For example, you could add optional fields that let you specify a Discontinued Date for discontinued items, or a Reviewed By field for transactions that require review.

Note: There is no limit to the number of optional fields you can create. However, using an excessive number of optional fields may slow down your system.
