Create Custom Attributes

For complete information about creating custom attributes, see the Salesforce.com Help & Training. This documentation is available if you click the Setup link to bring up Personal Setup, and then click the Help link.

Follow these steps:

1. Click the Setup link on the CA Agile Vision or CA Product Vision header area.

   The Salesforce.com Personal Setup page appears.

2. Click Create from the App Setup menu and select Objects.

   The Custom Objects page appears.

3. Click the object name for which you want to customize attributes.

   The Custom Object page appears.

4. Scroll to the Custom Fields & Relationships section and customize the fields as desired.

Best Practice: If you create a custom attribute for the Status value of the user story or requirement object, specify whether the custom status is an Open or Closed state. You can use the Status Mapping page from the Administration menu to specify the custom status. Specifying whether the status is open or closed ensures the accuracy of burn-down and velocity charts.
