  8. Select if the custom module should be a Global module or Project module.
    1. Global module: When you select Global module, this custom module will act as a common module and can be accessed by any workspace user.
    2. Project module: When you select Project module and select specific projects, this module can be accessed only from within the respective projects.
  9. Select the checkbox if you want to move the custom module records to another project when deleting the associated project. Or leave the checkbox unselected to delete the records along with the project.

  2. Click the more tabs icon.

You can choose an existing layout for the module and build over it. A list of all the existing layouts will be displayed under the layout name header. Click the dropdown beside the default layout, and select the required layout.  
 
Customize the layout by adding new fields based on your requirement. In the New fields tray, a list of all the fields that can be added to the layout will be listed. Drag and drop the required fields to the layout and then click Save Layout or Save & Publish.

Create module with AI 

When you click the Create with AI button in the Custom Module create form, you can generate custom fields using AI. You'll directly be navigated to the AI fields tray. 
  1. Enter a description in the Module Description field.
  2. Click the green coloured tick mark.
    Once done, fields and sections will be suggested by AI.
  3. Click the checkbox beside each field or section.
  4. Click the Add to Layout button.
  5. Click Save

Once you click Save, you will be prompted to either save and publish the module or save the changes to the layout. If the module needs to be published, you can click Save & Publish. Or, you can click Save Layout.


Notes
 Note: If you have just saved the layout, please note that the module will not be displayed to other users until it is published.

  5. Click Move to move the custom module to the recycle bin.
Notes
Note: This module will be available in recycle bin for the next 15 days after which it will be deleted permanently.

Recycle Bin  

When you delete a custom module (global or project), it will be moved to the recycle bin and will stay in the bin for the next 14 days after which the system will permanently delete the module from the system. Once it is deleted from the recycle, you won't be able to retrieve the module. 


 
When you delete a project which has custom modules, you will be prompted to transfer the records in the custom module to another project. Select the project to which the records should be moved and proceed by clicking the Move records & Delete Project button.
 
Notes
Note: Moving of records from a project to another depends on the visibility set for the custom module. You will be able to move the records to another project only when the same custom module is available in the other project.
