Salesforce provides several standard fields in each record. Standard fields are common to most CRM businesses, like company name, contact, account number, status, date, and amount. But every business is unique, and you may want to capture important info that’s not covered by a standard field.

Custom fields are the way to do this. You can create custom fields on standard Salesforce objects or on custom objects. When you create a custom field, you decide where it appears, what info it contains, what format it should be (such as number, text, date, or picklist), and who sees it and who can change the field value.

Text instruction:

1. Open salesforce.com and login to SalesForce
2. Click the Setup and navigate to Customize block
3. Find the object for adding custom fields in the Customize block
4. Click the Fields button
5. Scroll down
6. Click the New button
7. Select the type of object what should be added
8. Click the Next button
9. Enter the field details
10. Click the Next button
11. Establish field-level security (Visibility Read-Only)
12. Click the Next button
13. Set for what page layouts will be set the field
14. Voilà, you know how to create and use custom fields for objects in SalesForce:)
