Customizing Fields and Tab Labels

Note: You need the GUI customization privilege to perform the actions described in this topic.

This topic explains how to customize the standard issue fields, tab labels, and automatic fields, with the exception of the Action Release field. For information on customizing the Action Release field, see Standard Action Fields Tab. You cannot delete any of these fields, nor can you add to them. However, you can change their properties.
