Overview
When working with requisition templates, it might be necessary to create a custom field for your existing or new template. These new custom fields help you capture relevant information in the requisition creation process.

Create Custom Fields
There are two ways to create custom fields:
- When creating/editing a requisition template, click the Create a custom field link, or
- Click your user menu > Admin. Then, search Custom Fields in the Search Admin field. Click Custom Fields, then Add Custom Field.
Complete the Requisition fields in the Add New Custom Field popup:
- Field Name – The original name cannot be changed. However, the field can be renamed at the template level. For example, if a custom field is named Position Type, this original name cannot be modified. However, when this field is added to the requisition template, it can be renamed to any other name.
- Field Code – Consistent field value primarily used for integrations (cannot be edited once the field is saved).
- Type - (Cannot be changed once the field is created)
- Report Help - (Cannot be changed once the field is created)
- Instructions – Details can be provided for each field at the template level when adding to a particular template.
- For Data Feed – When checked, the custom field value will be available to Job Boards, Candidate, and Requisition API feeds.
- Sync to Onboard – Selecting this will make the field available on the Onboard side.
Click Save.
The Custom Field will be added to either the existing/new Requisition Template or to Custom Fields in the Admin Custom Field Requisition list.
