Free-Use Fields
You can create custom fields—referred to as -use fields—to be added to the document record. These fields are then available for entering information when a document record is being added or modified.
You can add unlimited free-use fields to document records. They are text fields that are limited to 256 characters. All free-use fields are automatically searchable on the Document Search page and when using the Search All Free Form Fields function.
