Creating Custom Cards and Fields

Top Echelon Recruiting Software gives you the ability to create unlimited custom fields for People, Company, and Job Order records. Most of these custom field types are directly searchable, with the exception of text block fields.

Custom fields can be created in the following formats: text, date, drop-down, multi-select, numeric, or text block.

Please note:

• These are always manual entry fields (will not be parsed)
• You must have the proper permissions in order to create custom fields for your firm

To create a custom card:

• Expand the Sidebar in the top right corner of the software and click on the Settings icon 
• Click to expand the My Agency section and then select Manage Custom Fields

• Select the Record Type you wish to create the custom field(s) for in the top left corner of the page

• If you wish to create an entirely new card, click the +Add a New Card button in the bottom left corner
  • If you have existing custom cards, you may need to scroll to the bottom of the page to see this button

• Give your new card a Title and click the Save button once complete

To create a custom field:

• Click the Add Field link in the bottom right corner of the appropriate card

• Enter a Field Label – this label will be displayed on the Datasheet as the field name
• Choose the appropriate Field Type from the drop-down and add any appropriate Options if necessary
• Click the Save button once complete

• Continue to repeat these steps to add any additional fields/cards as necessary
