Imports - Asset Custom Fields Import Information
Purpose
Importing will create new vehicle custom field definitions using imported information. If a custom field with the same label already exists, the row will fail.
Once Descriptions are Imported, use Imports - Asset Custom Values to then import the values for the Asset Custom Fields to associate the appropriate fields with the appropriate assets along with the values needed for those fields.
