# For HR Admins: Configuration

The **Configuration** screen is where administrators customize the Internal Audit tab appearance on Audit records and configure the search fields available on the **Employees** page. Click the **Configuration** card from the **Settings** screen to open it.

The **Configuration** screen is divided into two sections: **Internal Audit Tab Settings** and **Employee Search Settings**.

## Internal Audit Tab Settings

The **Internal Audit Tab Settings** section controls the display name and grid color coding of the Internal Audit tab on Audit records.

### **How can I modify the Tab Name?**

1. In the **Tab name** field, enter the label you want to display on the Internal Audit tab of Audit records.

### **How can I personalize the grid colors?**

The **Grid colors** settings control how cells in the Internal Audit tab grid are color-coded based on keywords. When a cell contains a matching keyword, it displays in the associated color.

1. In the **Not Missing Documents Keywords** field, enter the keywords that indicate a document is present and in good standing. Separate multiple keywords with a comma and no space (e.g., `good,complete,received`). Click the color swatch to select the color that cells containing these keywords will display.
2. In the **Missing Documents Keywords** field, enter the keywords that indicate a document is missing. Separate multiple keywords with a comma and no space (e.g., `missing,absent,not received`). Click the color swatch to select the color that cells containing these keywords will display.

## Employee Search Settings

The **Employee Search Settings** section controls which search fields are available on the **Employees** page. Administrators can add, edit, reorder, and delete search fields here.

### **How do I add a search field?**

1. In the **Add Search Fields** area, complete the following fields:

| Field | Description |
| --- | --- |
| **Field Label** | The label that appears on the **Employees** page search field (e.g., `Search, Employee Name`). |
| **Field Type** | The input type for the search field. Select from: **Text**, **Number**, **Date**, **Dropdown**, **Email**, **Phone**, or **Checkbox**. |
| **Mapping to Database Fields** | The database field or fields this search field queries (e.g., `firstName, lastName, department`). Separate multiple fields with a comma. |
2. Click **Add Field**. The new field appears in the **Fields Layout** area below.

### **How can I configure the fields layout?**

The **Fields Layout** area displays all currently configured search fields. Each field shows its label and the database field it maps to.

- **Reorder fields** — drag a field to a new position to change the order in which it appears on the **Employees** page.
- **Edit a field** — click the edit icon next to a field to update its label, type, or database mapping.
- **Delete a field** — click the delete icon next to a field to remove it.

## Frequently Asked Questions

#### Why are my grid color keywords not applying to cells in the Internal Audit tab?

Confirm that keywords in the Not Missing Documents Keywords and Missing Documents Keywords fields are separated by a comma with no space (e.g., good,complete not good, complete). A space after the comma will cause the keyword to not match cell values correctly.
