Import/Export customizations

[thenon]

What is the expected way to import/export customizations?

I want to work on customizations on a local copy of ERPNext, then export them and import them on the production server every now and again.

Thanks.

How to push custom fields to standard doctypes in custom App?

Hi, I would like to know if it is possible to push custom fields to Standard doctypes of erpnext from a custom app. I am trying to prepare an app where there are certain custom fields in the Address doctype would be added if a person installs the app. I know making new docs is possible but is it possible to push the custom fields through the app and how, it seems that this kind of thing is not explicitly explained in the help files.

Thanks both, but I’m not developing a full app. Not a python developer.

Just making some customizations to ERPNext, and want to migrate them.

Would simply exporting from the sql table that holds the customisations, and importing them again on the other system, not work?

Thanks.

You can also export and import the Custom Field table via Setup > Data > Import and Export

and import it in your new system
