Add & View Custom Field Data (Mobile)

The Custom Fields feature in BusyBusy lets you track company-specific details like permit numbers, certifications, department codes, or equipment asset tags. Once Custom Fields are set up on the web, you can easily add and view this data on the BusyBusy mobile app, helping you keep important details updated while in the field.

Custom Fields must first be created and configured by an Admin from the web version of BusyBusy before they will appear on mobile. If no Custom Fields have been set up on the web, they will not be visible in the mobile app.

  1. Open the BusyBusy app.

  2. Go to Employees, Cost Codes, or Equipment from the main navigation menu.

  3. Select the employee, cost code, or equipment you'd like to view or update Custom Fields for.

  4. Tap the settings icon (upper right corner).

  5. Scroll to the bottom of the page to see any Custom Fields.
