WE have a had varing degress of success from

1. Field was created in the database
2. UI did not update
3. UI produces a 500 error

We are new to this and can follow direction well but we just need some direction.

Hello,

could you please provide more details, eg. logs which are produced during this error on Schema Update?

Also, please have a look at our documentation. Links below show step by step how to add a field to entity and also describe whole entity management.
