Add custom fields

Create custom fields in Settings > Custom Fields to track extra details on properties, units, companies, contacts, and reservations.

Custom fields store details DoorSpot doesn't track by default — for example a Wi-Fi password, door code, or neighborhood. Create a field once in Settings > Custom Fields, then fill it in on each record.

Steps

  1. Go to Settings > Custom Fields in the left sidebar. The list shows each field's Field name and what it Relates to.

    The Custom Fields page in Settings, listing fields with their Field name and Relates to columns and the Create field button

  2. Click Create field. The Create Custom Field panel opens.

  3. Enter a Field name.

  4. Choose an Association type: Property, Child Unit, All Units, Company, Contact, or Reservation.

    The Create Custom Field panel with the Field name box and the Association type dropdown open

  5. Click Save. The field now appears on every record of that type.

Good to know

  • To fill in a unit's custom fields, open the unit's page and click Edit in the Custom Fields section, or use Manage custom fields in the unit's ⋯ menu in Bookings > Properties/Units.

  • Use the filter at the top of the Custom Fields list to show fields for one record type.

  • Click Edit or Delete on a field's row to change or remove it.

  • Common examples: Wi-Fi network and password, door or lockbox codes, school district, pet policy, nearest airport, building access instructions.

Troubleshooting

  • A field doesn't show on a record: Check its Relates to value. A field set to Child Unit only shows on child units; use All Units to show it on every unit.
