# Managing and Editing Fields

**COBBLESTONE SOFTWARE**

Contract Insight — User Guide

**Managing and Editing Fields**

*03. Admin User Manual › Field Manager › Managing and Editing Fields*

**Note:** Each procedure in this guide begins at the Contract Insight homepage, so any section can be followed on its own. Custom fields are configurable, so the exact field list on a contract category record may vary between environments.

# 1. Overview

**Field Management**'s **Fields** tab is the day-to-day field editor: choose an area, optionally filter to one tab (field group), and every field shows its display name, database column, type, group and behavior badges (built-in, required, read-only, calculated, invisible), each opened with **Edit** for full detail.

# 2. Key Elements

- Administration → **Field Management** → **Fields** tab: pick an Area (e.g. Contract Details, 806 **fields** in this QA environment) and optionally a Tab to scope the list
- Behaviour badges on the grid flag built-in, required, read-only, calculated and invisible **fields** at a glance
- **Edit** opens a field's Display name, Field type, Field group (tab), Order, Visibility, Default value, Required/Unique/Show on emails flags and AI field extraction toggle
- "**Reorder whole tab**" drag-reorders every field in a tab at once, in addition to reordering individual **fields**
