# Creating Object Type Fields

You can configure each field to behave in a certain way using the Field configuration window in the Object Type window, click a field to open the Field window (see Figure 5-3. Field window). The Field window contains three tabs:

- Attributes: Used to set basic display, edit, and requirement field properties.

- Default: Used to set the value in the field.

- Dependencies: Used to set clearing, display, and requirement field properties based on values in other object type fields.

From the Field window, configure whether the field:

- Is displayed (for example, you might need to store a value for later use in commands, but do not want to clutter the package line)

- Can be edited under different circumstances

- Is required under different circumstances

- Defaults to a certain value

- Is dependent on values in other fields in the object type

  - Clear the field's value when another field changes

  - Display only when another field has a specific value

  - Required only when another field has a specific value
