Fields
The Employee Defined Windows page has a detail section comprising four parts: header section, Non-Verified tab, Table-Verified tab, and Comment Labels section. Following are descriptions for each section's fields.
Header Section
Use these fields to define general information for the employee page:

If you want user-defined employee pages to be required during the Add Employee procedure, you also need to use the Employee Add Setup item and make the individual user-defined employee pages required.
