Custom Field Groups in your 800.com dashboard help you organize related custom fields into structured groups, making it easier to manage and review your call data.

Instead of managing all custom fields individually, Groups allow you to group similar fields together based on business function, workflow, team, or industry. This is especially helpful for organizations managing multiple accounts or businesses with different data tracking needs.

For example:

  • A hotel business may use fields related to reservations, room types, and guest requests
  • An automotive business may use fields related to vehicle make, model, appointment type, and sales outcomes

Grouping fields together helps keep your workspace organized and improves reporting consistency across teams.

Account-Level vs Organization-Level Groups

Custom Field Groups can be managed at both the Account and Organization level.

Account-Level Groups

If your account does not belong to an Organization, Account Admins can create and manage their own Custom Field Groups.

This allows individual accounts to organize fields based on their specific business needs and workflows.

Organization-Level Groups

If your account belongs to an Organization, you may see Field Groups created and managed by your Organization Admins.

These groups help standardize field organization across multiple accounts and teams.

⚠️ Note: If a Field Group is controlled by your Organization, access to fields within that group may change if the Organization updates permissions or restricts group access.

Benefits of Using Custom Field Groups

Using Custom Field Groups can help you:

  • Organize related fields together
  • Reduce clutter in large field lists
  • Standardize workflows across teams
  • Improve reporting consistency
  • Simplify field management for multi-location or multi-industry organizations
