About User Defined Fields

User Defined Fields (UDF) is a field defined by your organization. UDF fields are visible in the person Profile tab and can be linked to staffing rules for the purpose of qualifying, disqualifying, or sorting candidates.

A maximum of 16 UDFs may be created in Setup > General > User Defined Fields. The Initial Import manager may be used to create UDFs using the Person-In UDF csv file. The authority permission Setup: User Defined Fields must be granted to configure UDFs. The base rule type Person Profile User Defined Field Value is used to return candidates who meet the UDF criteria.

Important
A UDF is in use when that UDF is assigned to a person which may include personnel with a disabled or inactive system status - including disabled or inactive Profiles.
