Custom Fields

Custom fields let you capture information that's specific to your organization, beyond the standard built-in fields.

What you can extend​

You can define custom fields on:

  • Users — for example an employee ID, department, or region.
  • Courses — to tag or categorize training your own way.
  • Customers — to record attributes about the organizations you manage.

Defining a field​

Create a field by giving it a name and choosing where it applies. Once defined, the field appears wherever you manage that kind of record, and you can fill it in manually or as part of a bulk import.

Using fields in reports​

Custom field values can be included in your reports, so you can group and filter completion by the attributes that matter to you — for instance, completion by department or by region.

tip

Decide on your custom fields before a large import. Mapping a column to a field during import is far easier than backfilling values afterward.
