Hi,
In the following form I have added “Manager” and “Department” columns. I now need to make sure that the columns are populated with data.

My first problem:
I found it very difficult to find out which files needed to be edited. Is there an easy way to see how the list of workers are populated?

The form that I used to add the Manager and Department columns is HcmWorkerV2. My first instinct was to look for a view data source, but I could not find any views in the list of data sources on the form.
I can however see that the existing columns (like Name and Search name) are using DirPerson and HcmWorker as their data source. Does this mean that I don’t need to use a view as a data source even though I want to show department and manager for each worker?
Looking at the browsers URL (when I am looking at the list of workers), I can see that it ends with =HcmWorkerListPage so I searched for this in the Object tree and found a query with this name (still no view however). Based on this my best guess is that this Is where I should add information about the Manager and Department? I just don’t understand how the query and the form are dependent on each other when there isn’t any view?

My second problem:
After finding the query “HcmWorkerListPage” I wanted to add Department as a data source, but i was not able find a table called Department when searching the “Table” property of the data source I added. Any suggestions to how I can add the Department and Manager to the query so that the information will display in the list of workers?

Thanks.
