Employee Custom Fields
The additional fields for employees allow you to add custom types of data, such as the type of an employee’s residence in the country and its duration, whether they have completed a specific training course or not, and so on.
Add these custom fields to the employee files, determine whether filling them is mandatory or optional, and adjust their settings to suit your business needs and the nature of the field.
