Welcome back to Get Empowered! In the last Empower tip-of-the-week post for Empower CDS Software, we learned how to copy a Custom Field from one project to another (Tip #86).
Creating Custom Fields in Empower:

This week, we will learn how to modify a Custom Field (Part 6).
Let’s get started.
Step 1
From the Custom Fields tab of the project properties, highlight the Custom Field you want to edit (in this case, a Sample Custom Field) and then click Edit (Figure 1).
Step 2
Make the changes and click OK (Figure 2).
Step 3
If the Custom Field lives in more than one project, you will see a list of the projects. Highlight the project or projects you want to save the modified Custom Field into and click OK (Figure 3).
A warning message will appear, click OK. The modified Custom Field has been saved.
Step 4
Now let’s modify a Peak Custom Field, which is a formula. Once again, highlight the Custom Field and click Edit. The formula appears at the bottom of the window. Click Edit Formula (Figure 4).
Step 5
Make the changes and click Finish (Figure 5).
Step 6
Click OK (Figure 6).
Step 7
If the Custom Field lives in more than one project, you will see a list of the projects. Highlight the project or projects you want to save the modified Custom Field into and click OK (Figure 7).
A warning message will appear. Click OK. The modified Custom Field has been saved.
It’s that easy!
Final Notes: This procedure can be followed using the QuickStart or Pro interface.
