Add on fields are custom fields that are created based on a specialized requirement of your organization. You can configure the add on fields as you require like data type, size, value list, etc. E.g. In the screenshot below, pay revision add ons have been created for the payroll module. You can provide your own definitions like Basic, Mallowance, etc as shown. This is a powerful feature of GoodBooks giving you rights to create your own fields.

Select the module where the Add on field is to be created. E.g. Payroll
Choose the target screen for which the Add on field is to be added. E.g. Monthly Attendance Add on
This button should be used after you have finished with the grid values. So this is the final step in this screen. Hibernate Mapping files will create an XML version of the your entity along with your created Add on field details. Clicking on this button will generate the data into file.
