Fields

Fields are used to store the pieces of information in the ALB database that are entered into the software. They can be created at client, contact, or matter-level. These categories are known as entities and they provide the repositories (i.e. database tables) for all the fields and data entered. Essentially, they provide the tables of information that can be used to build your business processes.

Client, Contact, and Matter entities are shipped as standard and using Designer Studio you can orchestrate processes by using the data already stored in fields within these tables. However, you can also create new fields in any of these entities so that you can build your own data models and capture extra information. For example, to store a client's date of birth the Client entity needs a field called Date of Birth. In Designer Studio you can create user-defined fields in Field Designer.
