Custom Items

Top Previous Next

Custom items can be added to computers within the database to track any information which PDQ Inventory doesn't support or needs to be entered manually. Custom items are created in preferences and then edited for each computer on the custom items panel. Once a computer has a value for a custom item it will be available for use in reports and collections.

Types

Custom can be any one of the following types.

Type	Description
Date	Single date
Date & Time	Date along with a time
Integer	A whole number (can be positive or negative).
Text	A string of text, can hold pretty much any value.
Yes/No	A yes/no value, either on or off.

Deleted Computers

Note that if a computer is deleted its custom items will be saved and then restored once the computer is re-added, as long as the computer is added back with the same name.
