  Custom fields can be created in SAP SuccessFactors by going to the “Custom Fields” tab in the “Admin Center”. From there, users can create a new custom field by selecting the type of field they want to create (e.g. text, number, date, etc.) and entering the name of the field. Once created, custom fields can be used in reports and searches.
