# Connecting New Hires and Job Changes Imported from ADP Vantage HCM®

*For customers of our* [*ADP Vantage HCM integration*](/v1/docs/learn-about-our-adp-workforce-now-and-adp-vantage-hcm-integrations)*.*

---

This article explains how to utilize Built position IDs with ADP Vantage HCM, assigning new hires and implementing job changes for the appropriate existing positions rather than creating new ones unnecessarily.

*We recommend* [*configuring how Built handles positions for imported terminations and new hires*](/v1/docs/configuring-how-built-handles-positions-for-imported-terminations-and-new-hires) *to determine if positions are automatically deleted or created.*

## Creating the Necessary Custom Field in ADP Vantage HCM

Once a Built Position ID custom field is created in ADP Vantage HCM, you can update individuals’ position IDs, ensuring people are assigned to the correct positions on the specified effective date.

3. Locate a string field that isn’t already in use and click the field ID.
4. When the Edit Client Defined Field window opens, enter the field name “Built Position ID”. ​*You must enter the custom field name exactly as shown, ensuring there aren’t extra spaces.*
5. Click the **Category** dropdown and then click **Work**.
6. In the **Assigned Pages** section, click the **+** icon.
7. Hover over a page and click the dropdown, then click **Change Job Status**.

9. Click **Save**. A banner will confirm your changes have been saved.
