Step 3 - General Fields
The General fields page is displayed with the list of built-in attributes.
General attributes include information that users want to keep about the caregiver. For example, one of the General attributes may be a Degree attribute which would describe the educational level.

Built-In Regular Fields
Change any details in the built-in general fields as needed, or click the trash can icon to remove any unneeded field from the template (note that built-in attributes cannot be removed).
The following built-in General attributes appear in all new Caregiver templates:

Step 4 - Add General Field
If your users need more attributes to keep about the caregiver, scroll to the bottom of the General attributes list and:
- Click + Add General Field.

Add Regular Field
- Click Please choose a name and enter a name for the new field.

Choosing a Field Name
- Click the Choose Type dropdown and select the attribute type from the list (see Attribute Types for a full list of types and their parameters).

Choose Attribute Type
- Complete the remaining parameters for the Attribute Type.
- For fields you want to define as obligatory, select Required.
For a field marked as Required, you will be asked to set a Default value. A default value is used when users want to edit the data of an existing caregiver, but there are some details they cannot enter, due to lack of knowledge or any other reason. In this case, they can leave the pre-defined default value and save their changes.
Note
Default values can be used only when editing an existing caregiver. When users create a new caregiver, they must fill in all required fields with actual values.
For example, users who edit a caregiver's data might be required to enter a phone number. In case the phone number is unknown or unavailable, they can leave pre-defined default value for this field, demonstrated below.
Step 5 - Finish Template
When you have finished adding fields, click Create. The template is created, and you return to the template list.
Note
You can click Cancel at any time to discard the template and return to the templates list.
