Field Sets

Field Sets are used through out the system, to:

1) Add sets of extra fields to reports/extracts.

2) Choose which fields are required for projects.

3) Determine which fields are visible on organisation and people records. Because the user record specifies which projects a user can access, the system will look at the user's available projects to display the fields required. For example, a user who only has access to a telephone befriending project might only see the name and telephone fields of the person they befriend, because the befriending project only uses a Field Set called "Name and number".
