Manage Custom Staff Fields

This functionality is only available if User Created Custom Fields migration has not been run. Information on managing custom fields after this migration has been run can be found in Database Extensions.


  1. Navigate to the Staff Fields page. 
  2. To add custom staff fields:
    1. Click New
    2. Enter the Field Name.
    3. Enter a description.
    4. Click Submit
  3. To edit custom staff fields:
    1. Click the name of the field you want to edit. 
    2. Edit the information as needed. 
    3. Click Submit
  4. To delete custom staff fields:

    Deleting a custom field also deletes that field and its values from any custom pages. If you manually entered the field on a PowerSchool page, you must manually remove the field from the page.

    1. Click the name of the field you want to delete. 
    2. Select the checkbox to confirm that you want to delete the field.
      If you do not select the checkbox and click Delete, the system displays a message indicating that the field was not deleted. Click Back to return to the previous page. Select the checkbox, and then click Delete.
    3. Click Delete.
    4. Click Confirm Delete. Do not leave the page until a message indicates that the process is complete. 
      The system lists any PowerSchool pages that include the custom field. If any pages appear, you must manually remove the fields from those pages.
