Modifying ClearID custom fields in Config Tool - ClearID

You can modify ClearID custom fields in Config Tool so that they are displayed to specific groups or users. For example, you might display visit reason, registration code, expected arrival, and expected departure to a group that contains your security team or building reception team.

1. In Config Tool, Open the System task.
2. Click Custom fields.
   
3. In the Custom fields tab, double-click a Field name to select the custom field that you want to modify.
4. In the Edit custom field dialog, make any changes that you require.
   1. In the Definition section, make any changes that you require.
      IMPORTANT: Do not select the Mandatory checkbox for custom fields. In ClearID, custom fields must not be mandatory or unique otherwise synchronization issues can occur.

      
   2. In the Layout section, make any changes that you require.
      For example, you could add a group name to categorize your custom fields, or you could remove a custom field from a group when a grouping is no longer applicable.
   3. In the Security section, make any changes that you require.
      For example, you might add users or user groups in the Security section so that the custom field is displayed to them.

      For more information about user groups or custom fields, see Creating user groups or About custom fields in the Security Center Administrator Guide.

   4. Click Save and close.
