Article Summary

Custom fields are specific to the competency type they are set up under. When you assign a type to a competency item, the competency item inherits the custom fields associated with the competency type.

To create a custom field, follow these steps:

  1. Go to Quick-access menu > Competencies > Manage types.
  2. Click the name of the type in which you want to add a custom field.
  3. Select the Create a new custom field dropdown box and choose which custom field type you wish to set up.
  4. Configure the general settings.
  5. Complete the specific settings required for the custom field you have selected.
  6. Click Save changes.

Your custom field is now set up. You can set up as many custom fields under each type as required to hold the specific information for your competencies.
