In Gather, every specification you add will need to be given a "Type" as shown below.ย 

Types can be found under "Settings" in the "Account" dropdown menu in the upper right corner of your account.

Out of the box, all Types in Gather come with the following specification fields:

We understand that some of the items you're specifying may not fit into these standard fields which is why we've made it so you can turn some of them off and/or add new custom fields.ย 

To turn a field off, just click the switch next to the field as shown below.

To add a new field, select the "Type" and then click the green "New Field" button and fill in the name.ย 

The next time you add that "Type", you will be able to fill in details for the new field you added.

*Please Note: Very important ๐Ÿ‘‡

  1. Custom fields are based on "type". For example, if specifying a pendant light, you might want to add "HOA" as a new field. You would not want to add a generic field to multiple types. This will complicate your export checklists.

  2. Any custom fields you add will be visible to your client when logging into their account. However, you will have the option to remove them from exports.
