Using Attribute Manager
The Attribute Manager can be used to create fields which are not standard for K2.
These additional fields can be seen and populated when the selected item is open in the work area. For example: the Financial Asset Editor in the following image contains custom Financial Lease, Lease In Date, and Tenure fields.
It can be accessed by navigating to Tools > Attribute Manager, or by clicking the Managing Attribute Definitions option in the Tasks panel of a record.
The category is the name of a section that stores the custom fields.
These are the top-level items in Attribute Manager.
To add or edit a category:
Select the section that you want to add the category to from the Select section drop-down list.
If you open the Attribute Manager by clicking the Managing Attribute Definitions option in the Tasks panel, this field is read-only.
If there are no categories yet defined, click the You can click here to create a new category first link.
Right-click anywhere in the Attribute Manager tab and select New > New Category to add a new category.
Right-click on an existing category and click the View option to edit it.
The Attribute Category window is displayed.
Enter the name of the category, and then click OK.
The category is then displayed in the Attribute Manager.
You can then add an Attribute to the category, refer to Adding or Editing an Attribute.
