\nThe way most of our customers add additional fields to the change description is with the use of triggers and scripts that add extra fields within the “description” field.

\nAs an example:
\nadd-fields.py:<\/p>\n

*********************<\/p>\n

#!\/usr\/bin\/python<\/p>\n

import os
\nimport sys
\nimport re
\nimport random<\/p>\n

users = [ “cpflaum”,”cpflaum2″ ]
\nuser = sys.argv[2]
\nuser = user.lower()<\/p>\n

if user in users:
\ntempfile = str(random.random())
\ninput = open(sys.argv[1], “r”)
\noutput = open(tempfile, “w”)<\/p>\n

for line in input.readlines():

\noutput.write(line)
\noutput.write(“\\n\\tMy Additonal field 1=\\n”)

input.close()
\noutput.close()<\/p>\n

\nos.rename(tempfile, sys.argv[1])<\/p>\n
