Important notes
There are 2 types of custom fields you can see: protected and unprotected fields. Besides prebuilt fields, you can create many other fields according to your needs.
Protected fields have a lock icon, and you shouldn't try to modify their field names and field types (in code files), you can just edit their field labels and adjust other options.
You can delete unprotected fields, but protected fields shouldn't be deleted.
