Field Level Customization

Field-level customization enables organizing the field requirements of any organization. By default, Zoho CRM provides some standard fields and allows adding more industry-specific fields. Some of these fields are common to all modules and are displayed within each module settings. However, depending on the business requirement of the organization, each module can have custom fields.
