## Customising Equity Mortgage columns

You can tailor columns to match how your pension team reviews equity mortgage applications.

* Add columns for any additional data you need to extract. See [How To Add Custom Columns](/workflows/setting-up-a-workflow#how-to-add-custom-columns).
* Rename columns to be explicit (for example, include the expected format).
* Keep column names clear and unambiguous to improve extraction quality.

## Important notes

* Always validate critical identifiers (for example, RSA PIN) against the source document.
* If a field is consistently wrong, simplify the column name or add a short instruction to the column prompt.
