Display options 
Child Orgs

Associations and higher level organisation types can also select whether to apply the field to child organisations. If selected, a Role must also be selected.

For example, if an association checks the checkbox in the Child orgs column, and PLAYER is selected, then all PLAYERS for affiliated clubs will have access to the field.

Leave the checkbox unchecked to apply the field to your own organisation.

Apply to Role/Sub-RoleOptionally, select a Role/Sub-Role from the Apply to Role/Sub-Role dropdown. 

If a selection is made in the top (Role) dropdown, this will make the field available only to person records that have the Role (regardless of the sub-role held).
For example, you could apply the field to just people who have PLAYER roles. 


If a selection is made in the bottom (Sub-Role) dropdown, this will make the field available only to person records that have the specific sub-role.
For example, you could apply the field to just people who have the PLAYER-JUNIOR sub-roles. 


If selections are made in both dropdowns, the Role dropdown take precedence. 

If you don't make a selection in either dropdown, the fields will apply to all person records irrespective of Role/Sub-role.
Active

A field can be made Inactive by unchecking the checkbox in the Active column. Inactive fields will not be displayed on the Custom Fields tab.

SortEnter a sort order from 1 to 255. Fields will be sorted in the order both on this screen and on the player/match official edit screen.
