Zoho CRM supports a wide range of custom field types: Single Line (short text), Multi Line (longer text), Integer, Decimal, Percent, Currency, Date, DateTime, Email, Phone, URL, Picklist, Multi-Select Picklist, Checkbox, Lookup, Multi-Lookup, Formula, Rollup Summary, and File Upload. Each type has specific validation and display behaviour.
Zoho CRM has a limit on custom fields per module depending on the edition. Before adding custom fields, consider whether the data can be captured using an existing standard field or a related module record. Overloading a module with too many custom fields increases data entry burden and can reduce CRM adoption.
A Custom Field is a field added to a Zoho CRM module by an administrator to capture business-specific data. It extends the standard record with any data type needed – text, number, date, picklist, lookup, formula – to match the organisation’s specific data requirements.
Yes. The number of custom fields per module depends on the Zoho CRM edition. Enterprise and Ultimate plans allow more custom fields than Standard or Professional. Check the current Zoho CRM edition limits in the Setup documentation for exact counts.
