Where is Stores->Customers->Attributes menu?

Perhaps I am missing a finer detail but I am taking the Magento U course "Managing Your Magento 2 Store v2.2 " and it is talking about how to add Customer attribute fields for the customer profiles. It says to go to Stores->Customers->Attributes (but not Attribute Set as that is for products). I don't see that menu. Do I need to install a module? So far the course has been stating if something is for Magento eCommerce or not. And I get I don't have that verson but the open source one from Github. But it doesn't not state that this is for eCommerce only. I've looked in the User Guide. I've looked online. I don't see how to turn this on or install it as a module or plugin. There are lots of websites talking about Magento 1.x and how you have to create a plugin for making a custom customer profile field. But I don't see anything for Magento 2.x. I am thinking I have to turn a flag in a XML file to on or 1. But I am not to that point where I know to do it. I just know that I had to turn a module off in an xml file to get my installation to stop throwing errors. I just don't remember where that is.

Hello @STP2016

 

This is only for Magento commerce not for Magento community.

Hi @STP2016

 

Stores->Customers->Attributes - This feature is available on only Magento Commerce (Enterprise) version !

 

In magento open source version - if you want to create a custom customers attribute then you will required to create a SetupScripts for that.

 

Directly you can not create a customer attribute from the backend in open source version !

 

Fore more details refer this link - https://docs.magento.com/m2/ee/user_guide/stores/attributes-customer.html

 

 

Hope it helps !
