Attribute Sets Persons

When capturing records, transactions, or tickets you might want to capture information that QuickEasy BOS doesn’t automatically include. You can achieve this by using Attributes. There are pre-created sets of Attributes for specific modules which are listed under System when you add attributes

Unique attributes can also be created (e.g. to add information such as a supplier’s BEE rating). These attributes are named Custom Attributes.

Lookup lists may be created for certain attributes which allow users to select an option instead of typing it. Lookup lists are automatically alphabetised. Lookup lists are created from the attributes interface (e.g. Main Menu > Setup > Attributes or Menu (button) > Edit Attributes).

Fixed attribute sets cannot be altered (i.e. attributes cannot be added or removed). The attribute sets described below can be added to Contacts that are Persons.

Lookup lists, where available, can be edited or created by right clicking an entry and selecting Edit Lookups from the context menu
