- Go to the Sales Quotes view.
- Open any sales quote, e.g. 123. (123 represents the ID of the sales quote).
- Enter adaptation mode by clicking the Adapt button and choosing either the Edit Master Layout option or the Edit Page Layout option and seelcting a layout.
- Hover the mouse curser over the columns in the Products table
- Click the Add Fields icon (a plus sign).
- Add any field by ticking it's box and pressing Apply button.
- Click the Adapt buttons and choose the End Layout Changes option to save the changes.
The field is not added to the table.
