Adjusting profile fields
You can apply flexible settings to the fields in any profile.
Go to Main menu — Settings — CRM — Contacts / Objects / Deals / Activities:
Here you can select from a variety of field types, define their order of appearance in profiles, link fields, and adjust the parameters of search fields on pages "Contacts" and "Objects".
You can also add new types of objects, activities, and deals here:
New fields can be added to any profile:
After adding a field, you can mark it as:
- obligatory field (requires mandatory filling when creating a new profile):
- search field (you can find this setting in module "Objects" — read more).

- yes/no selection (radio button);
- simple selection (single choice);
- complex selection (multiple choice);

- text;
- price;
- document (file attachment);
- location (geotag);
- link (adding the link to another CRM element in the search field).

APRO CRM allows automatic calculation and filling of one field value depending on another field/fields value (for instance, you can get automatic pricing for one square meter depending on the apartment cost and its net area). Go to tab "Rules of associating fields data" on the list of fields:
The rules syntax is JavaScript:
Customized content of single and multiple selection fields
If you didn't find a good match in the list of default field contents, you can add one using fields settings.
Select the field you want to edit and tick "Custom option":
Now you can fill in the content you desire to appear in profiles:
After a field is created, an "Explanatory text" bar appears below it:
To add explanations about the field, just click the bar below it, and leave your comments.
The comments will appear below the field name:
