   1. Consider whether you want to create configured versions of the windows in which you can enter and display Special Information. These are the Special Information window and the List People by Special Information window.

      See: Windows You Can Configure

   2. Design the task flows for entering personal information, which should include the Special Information window.

      See: Task Flow

   3. Design your navigation menus, including the List People by Special Information window (or your configured versions of it) and the personal information task flows.

      See: Menu Structure

   4. Consider your special information reporting requirements. A standard Skills Matching report is supplied. This compares the special information, such as skills, held by employees and applicants with the requirements of a job or position.
