Can I store skills information against staff in Retain? [All editions]

Retain is able to store skills information in a simple format. This can be achieved by adding a long text field, e.g. SKILLS, to the Resources data file or table to store a list of skills against each member of staff. Selections are then made on this field using the 'Contains' selection criteria in the selection dialog. As an example, the SKILLS field might be filled with the following if being used to store language skills:     Resource Name Language Skills Anderson A French German Bortoft K French Russian Lucas C If you would like to know more about how to add fields to Retain or how to do more complex selections, please contact Retain International. There is a Skills module available for more advanced storage of skills information. Selections can be made in Retain using this information to select staff with particular skills.     return to Questions
