ClearID

A custom field is a user-defined property that is associated with an entity type and is used to store additional information that is useful to your organization.

In Security Center, Genetec ClearID™ uses custom fields for visitors, credentials, and cardholders functions. The group name ClearID is used to identify the custom fields associated with ClearID, and can be found in the Group name/Priority column.
IMPORTANT: ClearID custom fields should be used as read-only fields. These custom field values are populated and managed by ClearID. If you have existing custom fields, and the name and entity type matches the ClearID custom fields, ClearID will use the existing custom fields.
You can see the complete list for your organization in Config Tool. In the System task, click General settings > Custom fields.
System task in Config Tool showing the Custom fields page.
NOTE: Only users with the privilege Modify custom field definitions can view custom fields.
