Create an additional Field in Employee record

Posted on by 165

Hello everyone,

I am searching if there is any way to create an additional field (maybe open text) in the employee record form. We are looking to record some additional information for the employees and there is no field in the out-of-the-box solution which suits our requirements. 

Any ideas?

Kind Regards,

Maria

    Hi Maria,

    it depends on what you will do with that field.

    1) if this field is used only for information purpose, you can create a custom field on the form and capture the data there. This is not synced to CDS and therefore you cannot use it in integrations or in PowerBI

    2) if you want this field to be used in integration scenarios, you can do an embedded PowerApp (Canvas) and these data can be later used.

    regards,

    nicu
