Beyond Attributes Core
Custom Attributes Right in Business Central
With Beyond Attributes Core you create your own attributes for items, service items and fixed assets in Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central. Choose from seven data types (Text, Integer, Decimal, Date, Option, Blob, Plate), define the display order and translate attribute names for international teams. Store valuable additional information like engine oil quantities, license plates, or technical specifications directly on the object – for faster access and better documentation.
Custom fields in Business Central - on service items, fixed assets and items
Technical data right on the service item
Manufacturer, year built, mileage, fill quantities: every service item and fixed asset carries its own technical details. No more digging through folders or Excel sheets.
From license plate to engine oil quantity in the factbox
Attributes sit in the factbox on the record. Open the list or card and the values are right there, no need to ask around.
Support from the people who build the app
Get detailed documentation and direct support from the developers who use this solution daily themselves.
Create and manage item attributes in Business Central
Set up an attribute once on the Attributes page. Your colleagues then enter the value right on the service item, fixed asset or item.
Seven flexible data types
Text, integer, decimal, date, option, blob and plate. Store mileage as an integer, oil quantity as a decimal and colour as a picklist with fixed values.
Multilingual attributes
Add attribute names and option values per language code, such as DEU and ENU. Each user sees the attributes in their display language.
Factbox integration
All attributes appear in the factbox of service items, fixed assets and items, on the list and on the card. No extra windows, no detours.
Set the order, make fields mandatory, block attributes
The Sorting field decides which attribute comes first; negative values move it to the top. Mandatory attributes must be filled in, and attributes you no longer need can be blocked.
Extend service items, fixed assets and items
Attach an attribute wherever you need it: to service items, fixed assets, items, or several of them.
Service items: what technicians need on site
Extend service items with technical specifications, maintenance intervals, fill quantities, and all other relevant information your technicians need on-site.
Fixed assets: location, specs, insurance
Store additional information on fixed assets like location details, technical data, maintenance history, or insurance information directly on the asset.
Structured item characteristics
Enrich items with product-specific characteristics, from material composition to technical specifications to certifications. Structured and easy to retrieve.
No dependencies
Beyond Attributes Core runs standalone without further dependencies. Install, configure, and use productively right away – on any Business Central tenant.
