How do I add user-defined fields to the selection criteria? (2025.02)
You can use a user-defined field to create selection criteria when adding pay codes to employees. This allows you to identify and update specific groups of employees based on custom information stored in their records.
About User-Defined FieldsA user-defined field is a custom field that you create and configure to store information that is not included in the standard Connect or Connect Online employee record.
User-defined fields can be added to the Employee table to collect and store organization-specific employee data, such as department classifications, certifications, employee groups, locations, or other custom attributes.
By using user-defined fields as selection criteria, you can efficiently assign pay codes to employees who share common characteristics without having to update each employee record individually.
Adding user-defined fields to the selection criteria
1. Open Connect Payroll > Employees > Add Pay Codes to Employees.
2. Double-click in the selection criteria.
3. Move the user-defined field to the Selected Criteria Fields list.
Only user-defined fields that have been set up in the Employee table will be shown in the Available Criteria Fields list. The fields are listed in alphabetical order.
4. Click OK.
The user-defined field is included in the Selection Criteria. Set up the search value as you would normally do.
