July 02, 20253 min read

For solopreneurs and agency owners working with GoHighLevel, mastering the use of custom fields can revolutionize how you manage and understand your client data. This process ensures smooth operations by presenting crucial account details at a glance, significantly reducing the time spent chasing after information across various profiles. Here at My Vision Agency, we're dedicated to helping you optimize your business using automation and strategic coaching. Today, we're diving into the practical applications and benefits of leveraging custom fields within your SaaS platform.

Why Custom Fields Matter in SaaS Management

Custom fields offer a personalized way to track data specific to your business needs. Within a SaaS environment, the ability to configure and view account statuses, payments, and relevant timelines without toggling between different sections can vastly improve efficiency.

Imagine this scenario: A client reaches out to you claiming their account is paused. Previously, addressing this query involved navigating through notes, payment histories, and workflow records—a time sink that demanded meticulous attention. With custom fields, all pertinent attributes such as payment dates, subscription status, last commissions, and activity timelines are neatly accessible from a single profile view. This integration facilitates faster troubleshooting, client reporting, and critical decision-making.

Implementing Custom Fields: A Step-by-Step Guide

Let’s look at the process for structuring your custom fields and workflows, transforming how you handle account data. This tutorial will illustrate the implementation process, ensuring that you can maximize and automate these strategies.

  1. Establish Custom Fields
    Begin by identifying the data important to track, such as payment statuses or subscription timelines. Navigate to your settings, select 'Custom Fields', and create a dedicated folder for organization—say, “Plans”. Next, choose the type of field (e.g., dropdown for selecting statuses like active or canceled).

  2. Develop Workflows to Update Fields
    Next, construct a workflow designed to update these fields. For instance, when a subscription is initiated, your system should automatically set the status field to 'active'. Incorporate these updates into your existing process to confirm successful transactions and reflect changes seamlessly within active profiles.

  3. Automate Field-Based Triggers
    Arrange for an additional workflow to activate upon field changes. When a status shifts—say, from 'active' to 'canceled'—have it initiate a corresponding series of tasks, such as updating the client’s access or notifications. This ensures your response to account modifications is both immediate and comprehensive.
