# Insert fields into custom labels

You can insert different types of objects into labels, such as text boxes, fields, barcodes, lines, and pictures.

{% hint style="info" %}
You can edit existing labels. However, the best practice is to create a new label (which can be based on an existing label), and save the label with a new name. Refer to [**Create new labels using the Label Designer**](/store-manager/manage-inventory/create-and-print-labels/label-designer-select-label-format.md) for more information.
{% endhint %}

1. On the **Properties** tab, click the **Bindings** icon.

3. Click the second **Data Sources** tab.
4. Expand **NewDataset** and **Table**. You will see a list of fields from the RMH database.

9. Under **Layout**, adjust the field **Location** and **Size** until the field fits on the label.

{% hint style="info" %}
Make sure that fields do not overlap with other objects in the label. Overlaps can cause printing issues.
{% endhint %}

10. Save your changes.
11. Print the label to test the field size and location, and the readability of the text.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.rmhpos.com/store-manager/manage-inventory/create-and-print-labels/label-designer-inserting-field-objects.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
