# `Beancount.Schemas.Custom`
[🔗](https://github.com/thanos/beancount_ex/blob/v0.6.0/lib/beancount/schemas/directives.ex#L323)

Persisted `custom` directive (table `beancount_customs`).

Storage-layer counterpart of `Beancount.Directives.Custom`.

## Fields

  * `date` - the day of the custom entry.
  * `type` - custom directive type string, e.g. `"budget"`.
  * `values` - list of serialized value maps. `Beancount.Storage` encodes each
    value as `%{"type" => ..., "value" => ...}` so mixed value kinds
    (decimal, date, account, tag, amount, string, boolean) survive a JSON
    round-trip.
  * `metadata` - arbitrary key/value map.
  * `file_order` - zero-based position of the directive in the source.

## Example

    %Beancount.Schemas.Custom{
      date: ~D[2026-01-06],
      type: "budget",
      values: [
        %{"type" => "string", "value" => "groceries"},
        %{"type" => "decimal", "value" => "500"}
      ],
      metadata: %{},
      file_order: 13
    }

# `t`

```elixir
@type t() :: %Beancount.Schemas.Custom{
  __meta__: term(),
  date: term(),
  file_order: term(),
  id: term(),
  inserted_at: term(),
  metadata: term(),
  type: term(),
  updated_at: term(),
  values: term()
}
```
