Standard Fields

Using check boxes, you or other Administrators indicate in the appropriate columns who has the ability to view and edit certain fields throughout LearnCenter. For example, there may be certain fields you want Supervisors to view, but not edit. There may be fields you do not want your end Users to see. Once you have made selections and saved, the fields will appear (or not) when a User first signs up or the next time a User logs in (based on the way the LearnCenter was set up). On the ControlPanel:

  1. Click on the Options menu to expand it.
  2. Click Field Settings

This page lists all custom fields you or other Admins added for LearnCenter, and Standard Fields that are included with LearnCenter. By default, User custom and standards fields display on the page when it first opens. You can view other standard and custom field types by selecting the appropriate Item Type from the drop-down list.

Most standard fields have no minimum length and a maximum length of 50 characters. Exceptions are noted in the following table of Standard Fields.

Field Description

Employee ID

Employee ID. Up to 100 characters are allowed

Note: Prior to November 2016 (when this standard field was introduced), you may have created a custom field to capture Employee ID information. The introduction of the standard Employee ID field will not impact your use of a similarly named custom field. You can decide if and when you want to migrate to this standard field. As a best practice, you may want to hide the standard Employee ID field from use if you want to continue using your custom field. This will prevent any confusion about which field needs to be updated throughout LearnCenter.

Important: If you have paid for a custom integration with our services team, and the integration uses a custom Employee ID field, it is recommended that you reach out to your Oracle Account Manager before making any changes.

If you are using a TBE or SmartOrg-to-Learn product integration, the standard Employee ID field will be pre- populated with data that exist in TBE or SmartOrg, since this data was already being captured by TBE or TEE applications.
