Custom Columns for Risk Data

Track and manage additional schedule risk data with flexible custom columns across schedules, imports, and exports

Written by Philip MacDonald

The intended audience for this article is Agent Admins.

Risk Data Custom Columns let your team track additional schedule risk data that is not built into Wunderite. They appear alongside standard fields in your schedules, are included in imports and exports, and supported on mobile.

This feature is available as an additional cost add-on for Agency Pro and Enterprise plans.

Enabling custom columns

Custom Columns must be turned on by a Customer Success manager. To check if Custom Columns feature is enabled:

  • Scroll to Feature Flags

  • Confirm whether Risk Data Custom Columns is enabled

If it is not enabled, contact your customer success manager or support to request access.

Creating a custom column

Once enabled, team admins can create and manage columns from the Custom Columns page. To create a column:

Note: Admins can edit existing custom columns, including the name, description, risk data types, and predefined select options. Column keys and column types can't be changed after a column is created.

  1. Click Add Custom Column

  2. Select which risk data types the column applies to

  3. Enter a column name

  4. (Optional) Review or edit the column key

    • This is an internal identifier

    • It is auto-generated and usually doesn't need changes

  5. Choose a column type:

    • Short text

    • Paragraph

    • Single select

    • Multiple select

    • Number

    • Currency

    • Date

  6. Add a description

    • This appears as a column header tooltip on Risk Data pages

  7. Configure any additional options based on the column type:

    • Single Select / Multi-Select

      • Define the options users can choose from

      • Check Allow users to enter their own values to let agents and insureds create new options from risk data pages, or leave it unchecked to restrict to predefined options only

    • Number: Select how many decimal places to allow

  8. Click Next or Create Column

Where custom columns appear

Custom columns show up directly in your risk data schedule views.

  • They appear to the far right of standard Wunderite columns

  • They are available across the selected risk data types

  • Users can enter and edit values directly in the schedule

  • Sort schedules by custom columns

  • Search and filter using custom column values

  • Toggle custom column visibility in schedules

  • View and edit custom columns on mobile devices

Custom columns currently appear after standard Wunderite columns in schedules. Additional controls for custom column ordering, visibility, and importance are planned for Summer 2026.

Using custom columns in workflows

In schedules

  • Users can fill in values per item

  • Data is saved alongside the rest of the schedule

In exports

  • Custom columns are included automatically

  • They appear as additional columns in exported spreadsheets

In imports

  • Custom columns are recognized during upload

  • The system maps them automatically when column names match

  • If a column name doesn't match exactly, users can manually map the column during import review

  • They appear on the right side during the import review step

  • Invalid values, type mismatches, and unknown columns display validation errors during import

Limitations

  • Custom columns do not autofill on forms

  • They are currently designed only for tracking and collaborating on risk data schedules

  • Custom column data doesn't export in AMS360 format. If your agency uses AMS360 and needs to export a risk data schedule, use the Export All Risk Data on the sidebar to get a full export of all Risk Profile Risk Data in Excel format, including all custom columns.

  • Numeric columns store full precision values internally. Displayed values may round based on the configured decimal settings, but exports always include the full numeric value.

  • Column positioning and visibility can't be customized yet (coming Summer 2026)

Deleting a custom column also deletes any data stored in that column across associated risk data records.

Editing and deleting custom columns

Team admins can update custom column settings after creation, including:

  • Column name

  • Description

  • Applicable risk data types

  • Select options

Column type and column key can't be changed after a column is created.

When deleting a custom column, Wunderite will warn you how many risk data records will be affected before confirming the action.

Why use custom columns

Every agency tracks slightly different data. Custom Columns give you a flexible way to capture and collaborate on that data without needing native support in Wunderite
