[Attributes](https://support.paragon-erp.com/configuring-paragon?hsLang=en#attributes) October 26, 2026 # Add attributes to transaction lines ### **Introduction** This article will show you how to add attributes (or fields of information) to the lines in [transactions.](https://support.paragon-erp.com/how-do-transaction-screens-work?hsLang=en) ### **Process description** As an example, let's say some of your products have a serial number. You may want this serial number to show up on each transaction line. Make sure you have already [created the attributes.](https://support.paragon-erp.com/what-are-attributes-and-attribute-values?hsLang=en)   ### **Step-by-step instructions** - #### **Step 1: Open up your transaction** We'll use the **order** module here as an example, but the same applies for all transaction modules. Once you've logged into ParagonERP you can access any transaction module by clicking in the right hand navigation bar or through the **more** button.   ![](https://support.paragon-erp.com/hubfs/Knowledge%20Base%20Import/DocsDisplay-Feb-02-2024-09-06-58-8650-PM-1-1-3-1.png)   - #### **Step 2: Edit the transaction** Once you have selected your transaction, click on the **edit** button at the top right corner of the screen. ![](https://support.paragon-erp.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Edit%20sales%20order-jpg-1.jpeg?width=670&height=352&name=Edit%20sales%20order-jpg-1.jpeg) Right click on the transaction line that you want to add an attribute to. Then, click **edit line attributes.** **![](https://support.paragon-erp.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Edit%20line%20attributes-jpg.jpeg?width=670&height=354&name=Edit%20line%20attributes-jpg.jpeg)**   - #### **Step 3: Add your attributes** This screen will automatically appear. The line attributes that show on the screen have been set to **always show** in the [transaction screen settings](https://support.paragon-erp.com/setting-up-transaction-screens?hsLang=en). However, to see the other available line attributes, click on the **add an attribute** button. ![](https://support.paragon-erp.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Add%20line%20attribute-jpg.jpeg?width=670&height=553&name=Add%20line%20attribute-jpg.jpeg) From the list that appears, select the attribute that you would like to add to the line. ![](https://support.paragon-erp.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Select%20line%20attribute-jpg.jpeg?width=200&height=380&name=Select%20line%20attribute-jpg.jpeg) In this example, we now have *serial number* on the list of line attributes for this order. Fill in the information on this new attribute. Then click the **accept** button to save and proceed with the added attribute. ![](https://support.paragon-erp.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Screenshot%202025-02-19%20095835-png.png?width=670&height=551&name=Screenshot%202025-02-19%20095835-png.png) To cancel, click the **close** button. - #### **Step 4: Save the transaction** To save the added attribute, click the **save** button at the bottom right of the screen. ![](https://support.paragon-erp.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Save%20button-png-Feb-19-2025-03-02-33-4784-PM.png?width=53&height=31&name=Save%20button-png-Feb-19-2025-03-02-33-4784-PM.png)   ### **Related articles:** Want more information on attributes?
