How to create a sys_choice for the HR Profile table from a Scoped Application

Hi Everyone,
@Ankur Bawiskar , @Chuck Tomasi @GlideFather 

I’m working in a scoped application, and I need to create a sys_choice entry for a field on the HR Profile (sn_hr_core_profile) table via Script Include. I’m unable to insert or update sys_choice records for this table from my scoped app without changing the Application Access configuration, which I want to avoid as it’s not recommended to modify out-of-box Sys Choice configurations.

Has anyone faced this scenario?Is there a best-practice way to add choices for HR tables from a scoped app without changing the Sys Choice application access, or is there an alternative approach?

Any suggestions or guidance would be appreciated!

Best Regards,
Mariam Ahmed.

Hello @Marium_07  ,

 

Using  sys_choice for HR profiles is not recommended. Instead, you can create a choice field through the backend view of the HR Profile. Follow these steps:

  1. Navigate to the desired HR Profile form in the backend view.
  2. Right-click the field where you want to add a choice.
  3. Select Configure Choices.
  4. Enter your new choice value in the provided text box and click Save.
