The

Career Path Builder Source Preferences

section enables you to set up source data and ranking criteria for career path suggestions. As you complete the task, consider:

Option	Description
Default or Customized	All career path sources are enabled when you first access the administrator task. (Optional) Select Customized to determine which sources are available for users to create career paths. When you select Customized , Workday displays the Hierarchy , Order , and Level Field Type sections.
Career Path Builder Sources Enabled	(Optional) Remove the sources that you don't want to appear in the Show Next Moves Based On menu in the Career Path Builder. At least 1 of the sources are required, regardless of whether you enable Career Path Builder . Note that the Hierarchy , Order , Job Family , and Level Field Type settings only apply to the Skill Interests and Skills options.
Hierarchy	Choose whether to apply seniority constraints on job profile recommendations provided to workers: Default (ML Generated) : Rank results primarily by skills match, and do not limit results by seniority level. Job Level or Management Level : Limit career moves to be within 1 job level or management level of the active role. Career Path Builder prioritizes moves 1 level upwards in seniority from the active role. If no more suggested moves are available at this level, Workday surfaces moves at the same level of seniority, and then 1 level downwards.
Order	If you opt in to either the Job Level or Management Level options, specify whether seniority increases in Ascending or Descending order.
Limit by Job Family	If you opt in to either the Job Level or Management Level option, specify: Default (None) : Employees get suggested job profiles from any job family. Limit by Job Family : Employees only get suggested job profiles from the job family of their current primary position. Limit by Job Family Group : Employees only get job profiles from the job family group of their current primary position.
Level Field Type	If you opt in to either the Job Level or Management Level options, specify the field that indicates the level’s seniority: Job Level or Management Level : Use the decimal-based prefix from this field to identify seniority in your organization. Order : Use the Order field in a Job Level Hierarchy report or Management Level Hierarchy report as the primary indicator of seniority. You can view the level prefixes and the Order field for a hierarchy on the Management Level Hierarchy report, secured to the Worker Data: Management Chain domain, or the Job Level Hierarchy report, secured to the Set Up: Job domain. See: Set Up Management Level Hierarchies and Set Up Job Level Hierarchies.

Employees can access the Career Path Builder to view suggested next moves and save career paths.
