• Users can type decimal numbers freely.
• Delete/backspace on the input number will work without automatically replacing it with zero.
• Startime and Endtime will be calculated after any update in the time spent field and vice versa.

Contact Custom Fields

• Contact Custom fields are displayed in the ticket details panel.
• Values in the panel are read-only.
• Display order set in Admin > My Company > Custom Fields will be considered.
• The first three items will be displayed, and a show more/less toggle can be used to collapse or expand the list.
