My physical EEPROM has the FRU area and field contents that follow the Platform Management FRU Information Storage Definition v1.0 document. I am configuring this FRU in OpenBMC without MRW. I would like to know more information on how to configure the YAML
files <span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif; background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255); display: inline !important">
for all three FRU areas and their fields in general</span>. Correct me if I am wrong, but I learned that YAML files configure which inventory objects the <span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif; background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255); display: inline !important">ipmi-fru-parser
is to update for phosphor-inventory-manager, and the Inventory Manager objects are used to build the 'virtual' FRU used by FRU IPMI commands in phosphor-host-ipmid. My primary challenge is configuring the Custom Field in the YAML so that the property appears
in the Inventory Manager object and prints with ipmitool fru. The examples I have found configure a custom version, which is not the use of my Custom Field.</span></div>

How do I configure the Board Extra field as a Custom Field, and what are my options for D-Bus properties? Examples I have seen configure a Version D-Bus property with Custom Field 2 under the xyz.openbmc_project.Inventory.Decorator.Revision interface, but
my board custom field is not used as a version.</span></p>
