Custom fields in Talent are not showing up in CDS, why is that so?

I created a few custom fields in D365 Talent and wanted them to show up in the CDS environment but those fields are not showing up. Why is that so?

    Hi Min Li,

    From 1. October you should be able to see the custom fields in cds: docs.microsoft.com/.../core-hr-entity-cds-apps

    Is your core system registered before or after October? If you aren't on the cds for apps (2.0) it probably won't work.

    Hi Malin,

    Thank you for the quick resopone. Our core system was registered after October. We are on cds 2.0. I added some custom field to the table Worker and I try to see if it was on our cds but all the custom fields still does not show on CSD under work entity. Do you have a solution to this?

    Hi Malin,

    I am trying to use these custom fields I created in Talent for Finance and Operation. I want to use the same fields between Talent and Finance and operation so data will flow between both application.

    Hi, there is a detailed blog which will explain the exact process on how to publish custom fields, keep in mind that you can only do this on entities that are available in the CDS 2.0 for Talent:

    Hi,

    I add custom field in CDS but I am not able to show that field in Dynamics 365 Talent.

    Anyone have suggestions?

    Thanks,

    Hi @Parag Chapre,

    Yes I already read this blog. I know we can add custom field in Talent and connect it with the CDS.

    But can we do it in opposite manner?

    My question is I create one custom field in CDS entity and if I want to see that field in Dynamics 365 Talent? In that case how can I?

    Thanks,

    Bansari Pandya.

    Hi Bansari,

    This is not possible at this moment. You have to create a custom field in D365 HR and sync with CDS.

    Hi Bansari,

    When you created a column in Dataverse (new name for CDS), you can only use PowerApps and open the Power App from HR. It would be probably better to use the custom field functionality as suggested by Parag.
