Hi,  
I have been reading through the API documentation and I can see I can create / update the custom fields if the client has this enabled (which they do)  
But how do I add data to a custom field that is linked to their job module via the ServiceM8 API.

I am creating a new job and adding materials etc but I am also wanting to insert some data to a custom field but cannot figure out what node I need to have in the object.

Your advice is greatly appreciated
