Customizing Pipelines and Fields in Introzy

Learn how to tailor pipeline stages, add custom fields to People and Companies, and use AI enrichment to automatically fill in those fields.

Written by Nicole Adams

Introzy gives admins two ways to shape how data is captured across the platform: Pipeline Customizations lets you tailor the stages deals move through, and Fields & labels lets you add custom data points to your People and Companies records. Both feed into AI enrichment, which can automatically populate those fields using public web data.


Part 1: Pipeline Stage Customization

Pipeline Customizations controls the stages inside each pipeline — their labels, colors, win probabilities, and order. Changes apply across your entire organization immediately.

Getting to Pipeline Customizations

  1. Open Settings in the left sidebar.

  2. Under the Data/Pipelines section, click Pipelines.

You land on the Pipeline Customizations page, with one tab for each pipeline in your org.

What you can customize

From a pipeline's tab, click Pipeline actions in the upper right to access:

  • Edit Pipeline — update the pipeline's name and description.

  • Add Stage — add a new stage to the pipeline.

On each stage row, click More actions to:

  • Edit — change the stage's Color, Label, Win %, and Description.

  • Delete — permanently remove the stage.

Use the Drag to reorder handle at the left of any row to move stages up or down.

To create an additional pipeline, click New Pipeline and choose either the Referral Opps (Referral Opportunities) or General Partners (Partner Network) type, then give it a name and description.

For full details on pipeline management — including Win % explained, stage deletion warnings, and pipeline type restrictions — see How to Customize Your Pipelines in Introzy.


Part 2: Managing Contact Fields

Fields & labels is where you manage the data fields that appear on your People and Companies records. It lives alongside Pipeline Customizations under the same settings section.

Getting to Fields & labels

  1. Open Settings in the left sidebar.

  2. Under Data/Pipelines, click Fields & labels.

The Field Management page opens. Use the People and Companies tabs at the top to switch between the two entity types.

Permanent vs. Custom fields

Every field in the table has a Source column showing whether it is Permanent or Custom.

Source

What it means

Permanent

Built-in system fields (Name, Email, Industry, Location, etc.). These cannot be edited or deleted.

Custom

Fields you or your team created. These can be edited and deleted.

Only Custom fields show Edit field and Delete field actions in the Actions column.

Field types

When you create a Custom field, you choose one of these types:

Type

Best for

Text

Free-form text: notes, certifications, job titles

Yes/No

Boolean flags: "Is a connector?", "Has signed NDA?"

Single Select

One value from a list: tier, status, region

Multi Select

Multiple values from a list: industries, skills, tags

Number

Numeric values: headcount, score, revenue range

Adding a custom field

  1. On the Field Management page, select the People or Companies tab.

  2. Click Add Field in the upper right.

  3. In the dialog, enter a Field Name and choose a Type.

  4. For Single Select or Multi Select fields, add the options you want available in the dropdown.

  5. Click Save.

The new field appears immediately in the People or Companies table as a column, and in each record's detail panel.

Adding option descriptions (Multi Select fields)

When creating or editing a Multi Select (or Single Select) field, you can add a description to each option. The dialog includes a note explaining that option descriptions help AI enrichment choose the correct value when filling in the field automatically.

For example, if you have a Multi Select field called Referral Type with options "Direct", "Partner", and "Agency", you could describe each option so AI enrichment can match contacts to the right category based on their public profile.

Option descriptions are optional. Fields without descriptions can still be populated by AI enrichment, but descriptions improve accuracy when the option labels alone are ambiguous.

Editing a custom field

  1. Find the field in the Field Management table.

  2. Click Edit field in the Actions column.

  3. Update the name, type, or options as needed.

  4. Click Save.

Editing a field's options does not remove existing values from records that already have that option selected. However, removing an option from the list means it can no longer be newly assigned.

Deleting a custom field

  1. Find the field in the Field Management table.

  2. Click Delete field in the Actions column.

  3. Confirm the deletion.

Deleting a field removes it and all its data from every record in your org. This cannot be undone. Export any data you need to keep before deleting.


Part 3: How AI Enrichment Works With Custom Fields

AI enrichment is most commonly associated with the standard fields on People and Company profiles — Bio, Job Title, Description, Industry, and so on. But enrichment also reads and fills your Custom fields.

What triggers AI enrichment on custom fields

When you run ✨ AI Enrich Profile on a Person or ✨ AI Enrich Company on a Company, enrichment does two things in parallel:

  1. Fills the standard profile fields (Bio, Title, Description, etc.) from public web data.

  2. Scans each of your org's Custom fields and attempts to populate any that are currently empty, using the field name and option descriptions as guidance.

Enrichment never overwrites a field that already has a value — whether that value was entered manually or by a previous enrichment run.

The ✨ sparkle indicator on enriched custom fields

Any custom field populated by AI enrichment displays a ✨ sparkle icon next to its label in the record's detail panel. This lets you see at a glance which values came from enrichment versus manual entry.

If you edit a sparkle-marked field manually, your value is preserved. The sparkle icon reflects that AI populated the field at some point, not that the current value is AI-generated.

Helping AI choose the right option

For Single Select and Multi Select custom fields, AI enrichment uses the option descriptions you add in the field settings to decide which value to assign.

Without descriptions, enrichment matches based on the option label text alone. With descriptions, it has more context to make an accurate selection.

Example:

Option label

Description

Enterprise

Companies with 1,000+ employees operating in regulated industries

Mid-Market

Companies with 50–999 employees

SMB

Companies with fewer than 50 employees

With these descriptions in place, enrichment can classify a company's size tier from its public data rather than guessing from the label alone.

To add option descriptions: go to Settings > Fields & labels, click Edit field on the relevant field, and add a description next to each option.

Running AI enrichment

AI enrichment is triggered from individual records, not from the Fields & labels page. See Using AI Enrichment to Auto-Fill Contacts and Companies for full step-by-step instructions, job monitoring via Background Jobs, and troubleshooting guidance.


FAQ

Who can manage pipeline stages and custom fields?

Admins only. Users without admin permissions can view pipelines and see field values, but cannot add or change stages, create custom fields, or modify field settings.

Do custom fields appear on every record automatically?

Yes. When you add a custom field for People, it appears as a column in the People table and in every person's detail panel across your org. The same applies to Companies.

Can I use a custom field for filtering and sorting?

Yes. Custom fields added to People or Companies are available in the filter and sort controls on the People and Companies list views.

Can I reorder custom fields in the table or detail panel?

Not currently. Custom fields appear after the permanent fields in the table and detail panel. The order cannot be changed.

Does AI enrichment fill all custom field types?

AI enrichment attempts to fill all custom field types, including Text, Yes/No, Single Select, and Multi Select. Number fields are not targeted by enrichment.

Can I see which fields were filled by AI enrichment vs. entered manually?

On Company records, enrichment-populated fields are marked with a ✨ sparkle icon. On People records, you can check the Background Jobs page and open the job detail to see which fields were returned by each enrichment run.

Can I enrich multiple contacts' custom fields at once?

Enrichment must be triggered one record at a time from each detail panel. There is no bulk option.

What happens to custom field data if I delete the field?

The field and all its data are permanently removed from every record. This cannot be undone.

Can Permanent fields be edited or deleted?

No. Permanent fields are built into the system and cannot be changed or removed.


Troubleshooting

A custom field is not appearing in the record detail panel

Cause: The field may have been created for a different entity type (People vs. Companies), or the page may need to be refreshed.

To fix:

  1. Go to Settings > Fields & labels and confirm the field appears under the correct tab (People or Companies).

  2. Reload the page.

AI enrichment ran but did not populate any custom fields

Cause: Either the public data available for the record did not match any of the custom field names/options, or the fields already had values (enrichment does not overwrite existing data).

To fix:

  1. Open Background Jobs and click the enrichment job to see the full result.

  2. If the custom fields you expected to be filled are still empty, consider adding option descriptions to help enrichment match values more accurately.

  3. If the record's fields already have values, enrichment will skip them — clear a field manually if you want enrichment to attempt a fresh fill on the next run.

The Edit field or Delete field button is not visible for a field

Cause: The field is a Permanent field (Source = Permanent). Permanent fields are system-managed and cannot be edited or deleted.

Permanent fields include: Name, Email, Company, Location, Industry, Phone number, Connector, Has Account, Solution Provider, Created By, Referral Source, and Relationship Manager.
