In the example below, the options Customizable field 10 and Customizable field 15 are not available in People Pool:

There are some fields that need to be added or edited in Data Model.

For this solution, you need to engage your partner or open an case with Support SAP, informing:

CompanyID:

Support Access:

Approval to change data model: [Company Name] approves the changes in data model to turn available custom field in Manage Employee Groups.

If you are a partner, please, follow the steps below:

1. Download the Data Model from Provisioning;
2. Search for <description>Allow Everyone to read and write</description> or <description>Allow everyone to read non-sensitive data</description> in the data model;
3. We need to add or edit the parameter below after the parameter informed above (<description>Allow Everyone to read and write</description> or <description>Allow everyone to read non-sensitive data</description>):

<element-permission type="write">
<description>Allow Everyone to read and write</description>
<role-name>*</role-name>

 </element-permission>

4. After that, we need to add the fields we would like to see in Manage Employee Groups, in our example are Custom 10 and 15:

<element-permission type="write">
<description>Allow Everyone to read and write</description>
<role-name>*</role-name>
<standard-element-ref refid="custom01"/>
<standard-element-ref refid="custom02"/>
<standard-element-ref refid="custom03"/>
<standard-element-ref refid="custom04"/>
<standard-element-ref refid="custom05"/>
<standard-element-ref refid="custom06"/>
<standard-element-ref refid="custom07"/>
<standard-element-ref refid="custom08"/>
<standard-element-ref refid="custom09"/>
<standard-element-ref refid="custom11"/>
<standard-element-ref refid="custom12"/>
<standard-element-ref refid="custom13"/>
<standard-element-ref refid="custom14"/>
<standard-element-ref refid="city"/>
<standard-element-ref refid="state"/>
<standard-element-ref refid="custom10"/>
<standard-element-ref refid="custom15"/>
</element-permission>

6. Import the Data Model in Provisioning;

Note: If "Dynamic Groups" <dg-filters> is enabled in the Data Model file, the custom field should be also included here <standard-element-ref refid="custom15"/>
