Hi

I want to create and save a new field in product detail page in Shopware 6.

I don’t want to use the custom fields.

I want to create a new field in the products table and save the value from the admin product edit page.  
&nbsp;  
How it is possible?

I’m also stuck with the same problem, in your case, were you able to fetch your input text in your backend?

I Try to do something similar for the OrderLineItems.

In the OrderLineItems it is not possible to configure custom fields so I made an entity extension.

But how can I now extend the Administration to save content the field of my extension ?

Maybe someone of the shopware team can provide an answer for that question ?

You can simply write your data into `this.product.extensions.your-extension` Shopware will automatically write it to the database when you save the product (Autoloading might need to be active for this to work I’m not sure). This worked for me:

```auto
  methods: {
    // This is the @change Method on my Input
    updateData(){
      this.myExtension.option = this.selectedOption;
      this.product.extensions.myExtension = this.myExtension;
    }
  },
  created(){
    if(!this.product.extensions.myExtension){
      this.myExtension = this.myExtensionRepository.create(Shopware.Context.api);
      this.myExtension.productId = this.product.id;
    }else{
      this.myExtension = this.product.extensions.myExtension;
      this.selectedOption = this.product.extensions.myExtension.option;
    }
  }

```
