# Introduction

Agility Blue allows you to create custom objects that can be used as stand-alone records of information or part of a form's object reference field type that can be linked to tasks. Similar to system objects and forms, custom objects enable you to fine-tune data input through the object field builder so you can create instances of custom objects. For example, users may want the ability to create a list of custodians or production metadata standards that can be linked to appropriate tasks. Custom objects give you the control to define the fields you need to accomplish this in your specific workflow.
