Is it possible for an AppExchange package to create a custom list of custom fields?
I have an AppExchange package that would ideally create a different set of custom fields for each customer, depending on configurations that either the customer sets at package installation time or elsewhere in our own system. For example, let's say each feature requires a custom field; one customer might only need features A and B, while another might only need features B and C, and if we have hundreds of these features for our customers to choose from, we wouldn't want to create hundreds of these custom fields if they're only going to select a handful.
Is this possible? Thanks!

Hi Audrey
No, you can't dynamically create schema with a package. You would need to either include all fields and "feature" them selectively in different configurations or have different packages.
I would suggest using your base managed package for all, and then offer a custom designed unmanaged package for each different customer, with their specific custom fields.
