Store Fields
Store Fields are form fields that the Store Admin and Site Admin can create for their store customers. These fields can be based on individual Stores or department(s) specific.
These fields will be useful in the block templates and will help you gather an individual’s personal data. Examples of such fields can be –the date of Joining, and Blood Group. Information on these fields can be helpful while designing identity cards.
This form field will be available to all the Store Customers in their ‘My Account’ section. The data that customers enter in this form will be used for PDF Block personalization.
Admin can create Store Fields, create Field Groups, Import User File data for the fields created, and keep a record of Template Personalization fields.
The Store Field includes all the form fields created for personalization along with details like – Fields Title, Fields Type (User-wise personalization or Template Personalization), Default Value, and Block/Field name it is applicable for personalization.
Field Type - Select the type of field you wish to create
- User wise Personalization fields - These type of fields are used to set Customer-Wise data. This data either can be filled by Store Admin, Site Admin, or by the Store Customer as per the setting.
- Template Personalization (dropdown) - These type of Store fields are used to set predefined data (common for all Store Customers). Admin sets up this data and then it is available as a drop-down on block templates.
Title - This title will be displayed to the customer. Example of title can be Blood Group or Qualification.
Description - Enter a short description of the field. This will help Store Customer understand better the field and the data to be filled.

User Type - From this option, you can assign the Store Field to either one or more Store or all Stores.
Available to - Select the radio button to make the field available to some particular department(s).
Note - The 'Available to' field will only appear if the User Type selected is specific Stores.
Field Group - All the fields that have been assigned the same Field Group will appear under the Field Group Name entered here. This will become useful if you want to have separate available form fields into different field blocks or groups. Such grouping will make the user interface more systematic and meaningful.
Type - Admin can create various field types to store profile like text box, radio button, drop-down, text area, upload file, and date picker.
For example, the above example shows that 'Blood Group' Store Field has textbox as its input type and 'Date of Birth' has Date Picker as its input type.
Validation - This will help you check the accuracy of the Store Field.
Field Group will help you group similar Store Fields. Grouping of Store Fields will help you to make the user interface more systematic and meaningful.
