Custom Fields & Tabs

Bring Your Own Data: Custom Fields & Tabs for Smarter Procurement

Add the flexibility your procurement process needs. With oboloo’s Custom Fields & Tabs, you can define, group, and manage the data points that matter most across suppliers, sourcing events, contracts, and savings—without any technical setup.

How does it work?

Every organisation captures procurement data differently. With Custom Fields & Tabs, you can create and organise unlimited custom data fields across your modules. Define the field name, type, and visibility – then assign them to dedicated custom tabs to keep your record layouts tidy and intuitive.

Custom Fields & Tabs are API-ready and support full integration with automation tools like Zapier.

Tailored To Your Organisation

Why Custom Fields & Tabs Matter

No two organisations track procurement data the same way. oboloo gives you the freedom to define and structure your data using custom fields – and now, custom tabs to group them. Whether you're tracking insurance details, approval references, or stakeholder ownership, you can do it your way.

  • Add fully customisable tabs to group fields
  • Choose field types: Text, Number, Date, Drop downs
  • Enable/disable visibility across records, tables, exports
  • API and Zapier support for all custom data
  • No developer input needed
