Management settings - User defined fields

This feature enables managers to add customised fields to to employee profiles. These fields will appear on the Additional Information screen under each individual employee's profile, and can be populated from there. These fields are commonly used to keep track of items provided to employees as part of their onboarding process, such as laptops.
