Adding your own field type to a country profile

If none of the available field types suits your requirements, you can create your own:

  1. Register the new field type(s) using the Manager module. See the "Create and edit field types" topic in Invoices help.
  2. Create a section for the field type by adding a [FieldType] section in Eiglobalextra.ini. Use the naming convention used by other settings:
  3. [YourFieldTypeName]

    Note Names must begin with a letter (in order to use DCL expressions).

  4. Use the settings listed here to define the field's properties. Use all that are appropriate for your field.
  5. Add the field type to the [FieldTypeNames] section.

See example.
