Add a field to a default record layout

This article explains how to add a field to a default record layout.

To support new features, Lumary may make new optional fields available for some records. To make these fields available, you'll need to add them to the page layout.

We've used the client record layout in our examples. You can apply the same steps to other objects and customised layouts. We've listed recommended updates to align to Lumary releases in the table at the end of the article.

The instructions in this article include:

• a step-by-step video
• step-by-step instructions, and
• a list of optional fields.
