Member Manager data types

We can select the display format of a People Finder field if the data type of the corresponding attribute in Member Manager is string. Attributes with data type string can have one of the following display formats:

People Finder fields that correspond to Member Manager attributes that have data types other than string appear as fixed text. People Finder supports the following data types, but we cannot choose the display format for fields that correspond to attributes with these data types.

Other data types such as Timestamp are not supported by People Finder.
