hello every one,

with V30 i added a new custom field under the context student enrollment, and it appears under personal information under custom heading, but when i want to edit it it does not appear, do i miss something in the configuration ?

Hi @alkindy, custom fields for the Student Enrollment context can be edited in Admissions \> Student Enrolment, as these are attached to both the student and the current school year (rather than User custom fields, which do not refresh each school year). Hope this helps!
