  • 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.
