Before You Begin: Additional fields are configured in the Recruiting Setup > Job Requisition Additional Fields feature. See Configure Job Requisition Additional Fields.
If needed, you can gather additional information such as dates, times, and numeric values using additional fields in your custom Job Requisition forms.
To add an additional field to a custom Job Requisition form:
- Go to Workflow Administration > Form Builder.
- Select an existing custom Job Requisition form or create one.
- See Create Custom Job Requisition Forms.
- Click the XML tab.
- Enter the XML code for the additional field using the
<JobReqProperty>tag and style the field as needed. See Set Up Form Elements in the XML Forms Guide. - The following example shows what you might add to the form to include a field that was configured with the "AdditionalFieldXrefCode1" reference code in Recruiting Setup > Job Requisition Additional Fields:
-
<JobReqProperty>
<Row>48</Row>
<Column>0</Column>
<PropertyXRefCode>AdditionalFieldXrefCode1</PropertyXRefCode>
<ColumnSpan>2</ColumnSpan>
</JobReqProperty>
- Note: It's highly recommended that you enter a minimum value of 2 when using the
<ColumnSpan>tag for additional fields with the Multi Select Pick List data type. - Click Save. The additional field is added and displayed when you open the form in Recruiting.
The additional fields that you add to a Job Requisition form are assigned to the job requisition automatically, and when the form is submitted, they are displayed in the job requisition's Details tab. Any values that are entered in these fields when submitting the form or during the workflow approval process are also shown in the Details tab. You can update these values for existing job requisitions at any time.
When a user opens the Job Requisition form, Dayforce ensures that they can see only the active additional fields that their user role is assigned access to in Recruiting Setup > Job Requisition Additional Fields.
