Custom fields¶

- Custom fields
Custom fields allow you to add additional information to several types of data used in Redmine. See 'custom field types' for all types of data which come with support for custom fields.
Each custom field can be defined to be of a certain type.
Custom field types¶
A custom field can be of one the following types:
- Integer: positive or negative number
- String: one single line of input
- Text: multiple lines text
- Date: date
- Boolean: checkbox
- List: drop down list
Some validations can be defined for each custom field:
- Min - max length : minimum and maximum length for the field (0 means that there is no restriction)
- Regular Expression : a regular expression can be used to validate the field content
Examples:
^\[A-Z]{4}\d+$ : 4 capital letters followed by one or several digits
^[^0-9]*$ : characters only - no digits
- Possible values: possible values for the "List" fields. One line for each value.
