Customizing options
Creating custom field labels
A custom field label enables you to change the Site, Department, and Location names of the column
headings that display in the group and selected views. This functionality enables you to group and sort
console switches and servers in ways that are meaningful to you. The Department field is a subset of Site.
If you customize these field names, keep this hierarchy in mind.
