Description

Documentation for a DefectDojo Pro change: custom fields now render on the create and edit forms for the six record types that can carry them (Organizations, Assets, Engagements, Tests, Findings, Risk Acceptances), and are listed in Form Configuration alongside the built-in fields.

Two pages change:

Custom Fields (docs/content/asset_modelling/PRO__custom_fields.md)

  • Documents the Required attribute on a field definition.
  • Adds a section covering where custom fields appear on a form, that they default to the Optional Fields section, and how an administrator changes that per form.
  • Explains how a definition-level Required composes with requiring a field on one particular form.
  • Notes that values are stored separately from the record and saved immediately after it, so a value that fails to save does not lose the record.

Configuring Forms (docs/content/navigation/PRO__form_configuration.md)

  • Adds a Custom fields section: they are listed like built-in fields, marked as custom, and configure the same way.
  • Covers the Always Required state for a field defined as required, and which forms list custom fields at all.

Docs only, no code changes.

Custom fields now render on the create and edit forms for the six record types
that can carry them, and are listed in Form Configuration alongside the
built-in fields.

Documents the new Required attribute on a field definition, where custom
fields appear on a form and how an administrator changes that, and how a
definition-level Required composes with requiring a field on one particular
form. Notes that values are saved separately from the record, so a value that
fails to save does not lose the record.
