Renaming a Field

You can rename a field in Bullhorn to better match your team’s terminology. For example, you might change "Cell Phone" to "Mobile Phone" to align with your internal naming conventions.

When you rename a field, Bullhorn updates the label everywhere that field appears in the application.

Before you Rename a Field

To avoid confusion or display issues:

• No two fields within the same entity should share the same name.

• A field should not have the same name as the section header directly above or below it.

• System fields should not be renamed to replicate the name of an existing custom field (or vice versa).

Renaming a Field

1. From your Bullhorn menu, select Admin > Field Mappings.

2. Select the entity containing the chosen field.

3. Use the Field filter to find the field you want to rename, then click the pencil icon.

   

4. In the Label field, enter the new field name.

5. Click Save.
   

Your updated field name will appear throughout the application. Changes can take about a minute to appear for other users.
