User Field

User Fields are custom fields that are defined by a user with “edit” access for the User Model.

These are commonly used for training matrices and work order assignments.

User Fields can be updated in real-time by any app once they are created.

A Tulip account can have up to 100 total User Fields.

Every User Field has a unique ID. Even if two fields have the same name, they can be distinguished by their unique ID.

Once a user field is created, it is permanently stored in the Tulip account. It can be “deactivated” so that the user is no longer allowed to see it.
