Thank you.")* Hi, Sure, you can use either custom fields of the table "item" (on the product page) or custom fields of the table "order" (on the checkout) to do that: [ www.hikashop.com/support/documentation/4...shop-field-form.html](https://www.hikashop.com/support/documentation/42-hikashop-field-form.html) You can configure them via the menu Display>Custom fields.

I'm using the field type 'text area' and would need the customer to put in a 17 digit combination of letters and numbers.
