Custom Field
A tenant-defined metadata field attached to a document type — extending the standard Papyrus extraction schema.
Custom Field
A custom field is a tenant-defined metadata field attached to a specific document type. Papyrus ships with standard fields per type (invoice number, KRA PIN, contract value, etc.), but tenants often need additional fields specific to their domain.
Examples:
- A SACCO may add
Loan Officer Codeto Loan Files - An NGO may add
Donor Referenceto Grant Reports - A County Government may add
Wardto Service Records
Custom fields can be: text, number, date, currency, single-select (from a list), multi-select, or boolean. They can be marked required.
For the AI extraction pipeline to populate custom fields automatically, the tenant typically needs to label 50+ examples. Below that threshold, custom fields are populated manually.
Custom fields are searchable and filterable like any standard field.
