By default eeschema only has a couple of values per part. We want to add a few more to store the manufacturer name and part number in the schematic for each part.
To do this, you have to open eeschema. Just create a new project, or open an old one, doesn't matter. Once you have a schematic file open. Click on KiCad -> Preferences. Then in the dialog, click on Field Name Templates.
Here we want to add 3 field names.
