User Defined Tracking Fields

There are 6 User Defined Tracking Fields available for each of the following:

  • Spaces
  • Burial
  • Markers
  • Customers

If more than 6 are needed please consult with a CIMS Cloud representative.

Add to left fly out searches

All User Defined Tracking Fields will appear in the appropriate left fly out search types and can be used to filter the search results of the appropriate type.

Specials

Sometimes some other than a standard text input field is required. For special tracking inputs use the following:

Multi-line textarea input box

Add a '^' (carrot) at the end of the input label. For example: "Next of Kin^" (without quotes) will generate a multi-line textarea box instead of a single line text input box.

Burial Number

If the label for a User Defined tracking Field is "Burial Number" then CIMS Cloud will automatically fill in that input field with an auto incrementting number. That number is controlled in the "Configuration" tab of the "Edit Cemetery" popup.

Drop downs

Enter a ';'(semicolon) after the input label, and then a comma separated list of options. For example: "Setup;Chapel, False Setup, No Tent, None, Tent, Tent and Chapel" will generate a dropdown select box with the ootions of Chapel, False Setup, No Tent, None, Tent, and Tent and Chapel.
