How to Configure User Fields?

Configuring user fields allows you to add custom fields to the user profile for storing additional information about system users.

When You'll Need This

• You need to add additional fields to the user profile (for example, "Department", "Position", "Hire Date").
• You need to change the display order of fields in the user profile.
• You need to remove unnecessary fields from the user profile.

What's Important to Know

• Custom fields — additional fields that can be added to the standard user profile.
• Field types — you can select the field type (text, number, date, selection, etc.).
• Required — you can set a field as required for filling.

Before You Start

• You are logged in with administrator rights.
• You have permission to edit user fields (canSave).
