There are two types of objects in our system: tables and columns. Tables consist of columns. Both of these objects can be created via the agent interface.
A column can be created in two ways:
- Via the table updating form
- Adding the record to the All Columns table.
Option 1:
- Navigate to System Settings → All Tables.
- Choose a table to add a column to.
- Click New in the Column tab in the Related lists area.
- Fill in the form.
- Click Save or Save and Exit to apply changes.
Option 2:
- Navigate to System Settings → All Columns.
- Click New and fill in the form.
- Click Save or Save and Exit to apply changes.
For more information about the column attributes, please refer to the Column Attributes article.
