Create a position type

Position types allow you to set up custom fields and apply those fields to position items set up within your framework. They allow you to apply different custom fields to different items within your position framework, or the same custom fields to all position items.

To create a position type, follow these steps:

1. Go to Quick-access menu > Positions.
2. Click Manage types.
3. Click Add a new type.
4. Complete the required fields.
5. Click Save changes.

Your type can now be used to classify position items in your framework(s). You can now add custom fields to your position type. 

Position types are optional and can be applied in two different ways:

• When a position item is set up
• By editing a position item

The type names and custom fields can be displayed in user reports.
