Hello everyone,

I want to ask is there a possibility to add new input field in shopware/backed when new Item is created.

Ex. Items -\> Create(Item) -\> And as there are fields like Item Name, Description…I want to have an&nbsp;additional input field for inserting some data.

&nbsp;

Thank you!

Hello,  
yes, you can use Attribute fields (easy and does the job well most of the time): [Attribute system](https://developers.shopware.com/developers-guide/attribute-system/#search-results)  
or extend the editor yourself: [Backend extensions](https://developers.shopware.com/developers-guide/backend-extension/)

Regards
