Add a custom column (field) to an HR table

You can add custom columns (fields) to an HR table.

Before you begin

Role required: sn_hr_core.admin

Note: When adding custom columns to an HR COE table, you must create a UI policy to hide it from other HR services that use that HR COE table.

Procedure

  1. Navigate to All > System Definition > Tables.

  2. Select the table you want to add a custom column to.

  3. Under the Columns tab, select New.

  4. Fill in the fields for the Dictionary Entry.

    Note: For more information on columns and fields, see Field administration.

  5. Select Save or Submit.

    Note: If you added a custom column to an HR COE table, you must create a UI policy action (Visible field is set to False) to hide it from other HR services that use that HR COE table. For example, if you add a custom column to the HR Payroll Case [sn_hr_core_case_payroll] table, it appears in all HR services related to this table. The custom column appears even after you add it for a specific HR service. For more information, see UI policies.
