Adding a Money Field or a Number Field that Accepts Decimal Points

Curious about the different types of fields you can add? Check out this article!

From your Bullhorn Menu, select Field Mappings.

  • S-Release: From the Tools menu, select Field Mappings.

Expand the desired entity.

In the field column, type in "customFloat" and press Enter.

Find a custom field that is not currently in use and click on the hyperlinked Field name.

Fill out the field details on the pop up window.

Field

Description

Display

The label that displays within Bullhorn.

Edit type

  • Money: Free text field for you to type in an amount. Allows for decimal points and notes the currency to the right. Currency noted is based on the value in the CurrencyFormat system setting.
  • Float: Free text field for you to type in a number. Allows for decimal points.
Required

Allows you to toggle whether or not this field is required to be filled in before saving the record.

Hidden

Allows you to toggle whether or not this field is viewable.

Allow Multiple Values

Allows you to toggle whether the field allows users to select multiple answers/values.

  • Some fields, such as job title or plain text fields, do not support multiple values.

Sort Order

Input the number that matches where you want this field to display on the Edit screen. Use the sort orders of other fields to help guide you.

  • Example: If I wanted this to show above a field who's sort order 165, then I would use sort order 160.

We recommend keeping your sort orders 5 numbers apart (130, 135) as a best practice so if you need to add a field in the future you can easily fit it in. Sort orders must be unique so do not use the same sort order for two fields.

Value List

Because this is a data entry field, you may leave this blank.

Display List

Because this is a data entry field, you may leave this blank.

Default Value

Leave blank, unless you have a default value you'd like to apply to all records.

Description

Describe the field's purpose. This description will show beneath the field in smaller black text.

  • S-Release: This text you type here will show in black above the field.

Hint

Leave this blank. Because money/float fields automatically default to a value of 0, hints will not show.
