The Flex Fields page provides ability to configure user defined attributes for Deployment Request. When a deployment request is submitted by a user, they will be prompted to enter values for the configured flex fields. There are 10 flex fields that are available for the user to setup additional properties that can be associated to a deployment request. An example usage for a flex field would be allowing the user to specify the change request number associated with the deployment request. These flex fields can be viewed in the reports and tasks screen and could provide additional information about specific deployment request.
