Custom Fields
What is a custom field?
A custom field is a user-defined data field that allow users to store and organize additional information.
RemotePhoto includes two default fields: Email and Identifier. The Identifier field can be any immutable identifier for your organization, such as an employee ID, student ID, or badge ID.
To enhance data management, RemotePhoto allows you to add custom fields tailored to your specific needs. These custom fields can serve as additional identifiers for individuals in the system and can be particularly useful when viewing lists of photos or people.
Examples of custom fields include:
- First Name
- Middle Name
- Last Name
- Campus
Practical Example
In the example below, the organization has added two custom fields: Campus and Name. These fields help in organizing and identifying individuals more effectively within the system.
By selecting Campus, we can search for all cardholders that are on East Campus.
By having custom fields in place, we are able to make the searching and sorting process easier for each organization!
