How to Assign and Work with Custom Data
The custom fields feature extends computer property information and integrates with your computer list seamlessly. Assign data of your choice to the computers you manage to find and sort them easier, or to add descriptive information.
Remember: To assign custom values to a computer, you must first define custom fields. For details, see How to Define Custom Fields. You can also use custom fields to achieve the same goal as nested grouping (groups within groups) would.
