There are two types of custom fields that you can create using the transaction feature – global fields that are used for ALL transaction types, and custom fields that are a specific transaction type.
- To create global transaction custom fields, click the Custom Fields tab at the top of the transaction list.
- To create transaction specific custom fields, click the Fields button next to the transaction type name.

- Associated Roles - The roles to which the transaction type is associated.
