2. Click **Add field**, select Boolean, and type in **Prepaid** **Subscription.**
3. Click **Create and configure** and in the **Default value** tab, select the **No** radio button and click **Confirm.** 
4. Click **Add field** again, and after selecting **Number**, type in **Max Installment** and click **Create and configure**. 
5. In the **Appearance** tab under Help, type in the following text: *The item is subscribable via gift subscription; what are the maximum amount of installments allowed to be purchased? It defaults to 12 and is not synced to the OMS.*
