We interface employee information from Personio to another system in our company. This system requires certain fields to be pre-filled in order to ensure the interface doesn't fail. Is there a way to make certain the attributes under settings → people → employee information mandatory?

Dear
Thank you for sharing this question with us!
During the onboarding process, you can add an Onboarding—Step for employees to fill in certain attributes (Settings > Workflows > On- and Offboarding > Onboarding—Step):
This Step would release a task that will not be closed, until the new employee fills in the Attributes, thus guaranteeing, that the Attributes are not empty.
For existing employees, you can check in the Employee List who has filled in the needed Attributes and advise those employees who haven’t to please undertake this in their own profiles. This requires that employees have at least Proposal rights for the respective Section of the employee profile (Settings> People > Employee roles > Access rights).
A functionality to mark Attributes as mandatory is not yet available, but I hope these two solutions help you to solve this inquiry.
Please let me know if I can support you any further with this topic!
I wish you an amazing afternoon.
Best,
Andrea

You say that functionality to mark Attributes is not yet available. Does that mean it is on the roadmap or an ideation I can vote for?
