Once in the configuration screen, click Custom Attributes then click Add Attribute to create a new client attribute.
The following pop-up window will appear to build out the attribute.
Name = attribute name

There is also Client Site attributes that can be configured in the same way. To create Client Site attributes, select the drop down and click Add Attribute
Once all appropriate fields are completed, click Save. Now let’s navigate to a client account to view the attributes. Click into a customer then click the Account tab > Client Attributes
Here you can populate values into the configured client attributes. On this screen you have the ability to filter based on the client site as well as attribute name.
The Reset to Default Values feature works on the currently displayed sites and attributes. If any of the displayed attributes have a default value specified, it should be set to that value.
