Working with Custom Elements
Custom Elements are an Information Element in your hiring system and represent a library of information that can be imported into your job templates. Click the ⋮ menu of an existing Custom Element to Clone, Edit, or Delete.
Clone: To build a similar Custom Element quickly, you can clone a Custom Element, make your changes, and save it under a new title.
Edit: Editing a Custom Element is a good option if you have changes that you would like to include in all future job templates. If the Custom Element was used in templates and/or posted jobs, the changes will be applied to all templates, but the Custom Elements in any posted jobs will not be changed.
Delete: Deleting a Custom Element will remove it from the hiring system. Performing this action cannot be reversed. If you delete a Custom Element assigned to one or more jobs, it will be removed from all locations where it is used regardless of current job status.
