  1. As a user with the Administrator role, go to Configuration → Data → Custom fields Project custom fields, and Add a new custom field.

    • No → It disables custom fields for that LSP.

...

Subcontractors have the possibility to see all the custom fields coming from the contractor, that have been passed over to a subcontractor, within the framework of a subcontracted project, at least once and which the LSP is able to see in that project. To do so, the LSP must enable the Show contractors custom fields option in Configuration → Data → Custom fields → Project custom fields → Show contractors custom fields. The contractor’s custom fields are greyed out and uneditable.
