How do I create keywords?

Keywords can be entered in applications. They form the basis for the talent pool, as individual pools are built using keywords.

Keywords can be created in two ways:

Creation in master data

In the master data, keywords can be created, linked to an organizational unit, edited, and translations for other languages can be maintained. Advantage: If users want to add keywords in an application, they have a selection of previously created keywords. This reduces the use of misspellings.

Follow these steps:

1. Open the page Master data.
2. Click on the list entry Keywords. The page with the same name will be displayed.
3. Click on the button + Keyword. An input form will be displayed.
4. Fill out the input form:
   • Display name*: This corresponds to the keyword.
   • Organizational unit*: Select the organizational unit for which the keyword should be available.
5. Click on the Create button to save the entries. The Keywords page with an overview of all created keywords will be displayed.
   OR
   Click on the button Create and add another. The input form will be displayed again. You can now add more keywords.

Creation in the personal data of the application

Keywords can be entered directly in the application. However, it is recommended to create a selection in the master data to avoid different spellings for the same keyword (e.g., MS Word, Word, Microsoft Word, MS-Word).

All keywords added to applications are automatically included in the master data and are available for all subsequent applications.

Follow these steps:

1. Open the application to which a keyword should be added.
2. Click on the edit icon next to Keywords. An input form will be displayed.
3. Enter a keyword in the input form.
4. Press Enter (↵) on your keyboard. The keyword will be saved, displayed with a border and an "X" for removal, and added to the list of existing keywords.
5. Click on the save icon . The keyword will be saved, added to the master data, and made available to all users.
