Custom attributes can be defined for account groups, user groups, host groups, commands, and access times to provide additional parameters for use in scripts. For example, you could set an expiration date as a custom attribute for a user group, check for this date in the script, then expire the user group when the date is reached.
To define custom attributes:
On the home page of the console, click Command Control.
Select the entity you want to add custom attributes to.
In the task pane, click the Define Custom Attributes icon.
Click Add.
In the Name field, specify the name of the custom attribute. For example, Expiration date.
In the Value field, specify the value for the attribute. For example, the date you want the entity to expire.
Repeat Step 4 through Step 6 for any other custom attributes you want to add.
Click Finish.
