Custom Fields give ClickUp tasks unlimited flexibility and let you add tons of rich information to your views. Let's take a look at all of the different types of custom fields you have at your disposal.
Checkbox
A simple true or false checkbox.
Date
Add a custom date to your task, including a specific time.
Dropdown
Use dropdowns to give consistent options on your tasks! You can even colorize the dropdown labels.
Track clients, vendors, leads, and more by associating emails with tasks.
Files
Add and organize files directly from a List view. Attach one or multiple files to a column, or create multiple columns to fit your workflow!
Formula
Make calculations between numeric custom fields on a task using both simple and advanced formulas. The simple version is meant for quick calculations of values, while advanced formulas can be enabled to create complex calculations.
Labels
Add one or more labels with colors!
Location
Add any address to your tasks. Simply begin typing to pull in addresses and places searchable via Google Maps - great for building out Lists of clients, vendors, or anything else you need a location for! Bring each of these locations together in a Map view for greater visualization.
Long & Short Text
Capture key information like names, locations, and anything small with Text. Use Long text for notes or task details you'd like to see in List view
Money
Add information such as budget, cost, or price.
Number
Use number fields for accounting, inventory, or tracking.
People
Select from people in your Workspace.
Note: By default, existing People Custom Fields will have the Select Multiple People option automatically enabled. If you'd like to limit it to only allow one person, just uncheck the Select Multiple People option in the Edit Field settings modal.
Phone
Use ClickUp as a CRM by adding phone numbers.
Progress (Auto)
Automatically track completion of subtasks, checklists, and/or assigned comments.
Progress (Manual)
Manually track the progress of anything.
