Add a custom specification field to a table if it does not already exist
Creates a new specification (custom) field, skipping creation if a field with that name already exists. You can optionally copy the category structure from another existing field by name or ID, and force a specific SpecificationID rather than auto-generating one.
| Parameter | Description |
|---|---|
| cmd | Name of the specification field to add |
| Argument 0 | Table name the field belongs to (defaults to the Asset table if blank) |
| Argument 1 | SpecificationTypeID for the new field (controls the field data type) |
| Argument 2 | SpecificationID or SpecificationXMLName of an existing field whose categories should be copied to this new field |
| Argument 3 | Force a specific SpecificationID for the new field instead of generating a new one |
