Within the Departments dialog there are three other tabs besides the main Department tab. The first is for Notes related to the Department dialog that can be added or linked from other records.
The Custom tab contains fields that can be customized to add Characters, Dates, Numbers, and Check boxes. Visit the Change Field Names help topic to learn how to edit these fields.
The Meta tab shows a READ-ONLY log of who created the Department record and when, as well as who updated the record and when. This tab is populated automatically for security purposes and is not editable.
