Fields

This menu [Configuration>Object>Fields] can be used to create a custom field based on the selected Streams and (optional) your own mathematical function. Additionally, you can use the Mapping, too. The system includes many of the most useful predefined fields that you can use right after installing the system.

The list of fields is in the table with the following columns:

• Name - unique field name
• Streams - streams used to create fields
• Description - field description entered by user
• Action
  • Duplicate - creating an editable copy of the selected field

The predefined fields in the system are not editable but can be duplicated and then edited.

To add a new Field click Add field button then the field wizard will appear. In the wizard window there are the following fields:

• Field name - name of the field in the system (user friendly)
• Description - short field description
• Sources - the data stream (or streams) that will be used to create Field
