Configure Visibility for Section Fields

Before You Begin: This functionality isn’t available for custom screening questionnaire sections.

In the Section Configuration tab of Recruiting Setup > Job Application Sections, you can configure the visibility of application section fields, and specify whether the visible fields are required using the Field Visibility drop-down list:

Field Visibility section highlighted in the Section Configuration tab.

To configure field visibility:

  1. Go to Recruiting Setup > Job Application Configuration.
  2. Click the Section Configuration tab.
  3. Select one of the following sections in the Job Application Sections list:
    • Personal Information
    • Education History
    • Employment History
    • References
  4. When you select one of these sections, the application displays the Application Section Field Configuration section.
  5. If the field is configurable, Dayforce displays a drop-down list in the Field Visibility column. Select one of the following options to define the visibility and requirements of each field:
    • Visible - Required
    • Visible - Not Required
    • Not Visible
  6. Note: Not all fields can be configured, and not all field visibility options might be available for each configurable field.
  7. Click Save. When candidates submit an application, the system validates that the required fields are completed for each section.
