-A track can have one or more track fields that can contain data that explains the assignment of the track to the respondent. Example fields are a description,​ some date or a list of choices stating that a track is assigned to e.g. the right side of the respondents body or the left side. Track fields can have mandatory ​answers ​or can be optional. All the values entered for track fields are bundled together to form a track description.+A track can have one or more track fields that can contain data that explains the assignment of the track to the respondent. Example fields are a description,​ some date or a list of choices stating that a track is assigned to e.g. the right side of the respondents body or the left side. Track fields can be mandatory or optional and they can be read-only or editable. All the values entered for track fields are bundled together to form a track description, unless you define the field not to be added to the track description. 
 + 
 +The most advanced type of track field is the **appointment field**. Appointments fields can be automatically filled using Appointment filters. You can even specify the field to automatically create a new track if an appointment matches the filter (and the patient does not have an existing unfinished track of that type). 
 + 
 +Appointment fields can also be used to fill other fields, e.g. setting the value of the location or attendant using the corresponding fields from the appointment.
  
-==== Token ====+Projects can define their own track field types. 
 +==== Token (in Dutch: Kenmerk) ​====
  
 A token is an identification relating a single respondent to a single survey instance for a single round in a track assigned to that respondent. A token is an identification relating a single respondent to a single survey instance for a single round in a track assigned to that respondent.
