<u>==='''Display Order'''</u>===
* This setting determines the order that the field will be displayed on the page. The first field that is added to an [[Entity|entity]] will use a display order of 10.
* You can change the display order by setting the display order to a different number. For example, if you set the display order on a field to 5000 then the next field added will automatically become 5010.
<u>==='''Display Order with Related Entities'''</u>===
If you add [[Custom Field|custom fields]] to the basic contact [[Entity|entity]] and then add fields to [[Role|roles]] associated with contacts, you will need to take care, as the fields will become mixed if they have the same number sequence.
You should start the number sequence for these types of related fields at some higher level. For example, role 1 starts at 5000, role 2 starts at 8000.
<u>==='''Tab Order'''</u>===
* By adding a text value to the tab order to the field will be displayed on that tab.
* Custom fields that are not associated with a tab will be displayed on a tab named Default.
<u>==='''Fields with No Tab Set'''</u>===
