Renaming fields in the inFlow settings

Some places in inFlow don’t have the Right-click > Customize option, so you can get to the same screen below by going to Main Menu > Options > Settings > Rename Fields.

You can search for a label you want to replace. For example, if you want to replace the word Invoice with Tax Invoice, you can search Invoice at the top, and it will show all labels with that word. You can then replace each one by typing into the Custom Text box beside each label.

Some fields can only be changed and shown within the Windows app. While others will be renamed within the Windows, web, and mobile apps.

You will also notice that there is a third column next to the Custom Text box. If there is a checkmark in the field, that means that the field will be renamed in the Windows, web, and mobile app.

If you would like to filter through the fields to see which ones you’ve renamed, click on the Custom Text header. If you want to see which fields will transfer to the web and mobile app, click on the computer/mobile icon in the 3rd column.
