Add Custom Fields to Opportunities
The default opportunity fields — value, source, owner — cover the basics, but most sales processes track a few extra details specific to the business.
Creating a custom field
- Go to Settings > Custom Fields, or click Add/Manage Fields directly from an opportunity.
- Click + Add Field.
- Choose a field type.
- Set the object type to Opportunity.
- Save.
Group related fields into folders for a long field list.
Field types available
Single-line text, multi-line text, list fields, numbers, phone numbers, monetary values, dropdowns, radio buttons, checkboxes, date/time pickers, file uploads, signatures.
Putting custom fields to work
Filter opportunities by a custom field's value in Advanced Filters, add a custom field to opportunity cards via Manage Fields, turn on Hide Empty Fields to keep cards clean.
A note on card display
Which fields show on cards is a per-user view setting; the custom fields themselves are shared account-wide.
