Custom Attributes for Recipients

The Custom Attributes property page contains 10 unique custom attribute fields that you customize to track information about the recipients in your site. For example, suppose your company uses an employee ID numbering system. If your company defines a custom attribute field called Employee ID# in the Custom Attributes property page of the DS Site Configuration object, then that field automatically appears in the Custom Attributes property page for every recipient. By default, the fields are called Custom Attributes 1 through 10.

Getting to the Custom Attributes property page

1. In the Administrator window, choose a recipients container or an Address Book view container.
2. Double-click the mailbox, distribution list, custom recipient, or public folder you want to configure.
3. Select the Custom Attributes tab.

Renaming the Custom Attribute Fields

You can rename custom attribute fields to track information about the recipients in your site.

1. In the Administrator window, choose Configuration.
2. Double-click DS Site Configuration.
3. Select Custom Attributes.
4. Type the new names in Custom Attribute boxes 1 through 10.
5. Select Apply, and then choose OK.
