Adding a custom field to the Item Card

Posted on by Microsoft Employee

We are just getting ready to start implementing Dynamics 365 for Business.  I am going to need a custom field added to the item card that is a "sales text" field.  This field will be an item description that will be shown on invoices to our customers (our internal item descriptions are a type of "code" and would not be good for customers to see). 

Is this possible to add a custom field?  Does it require an extension to create a custom field?  If it does, what are some extension suggestions for doing this type of customization?

    Answered on another thread: adding new fields is a developer task that can be performed using developer tools.
