The user fields of each profile will then be listed in the available columns of the
Database Explorer. The column corresponding to a user field could thus be made
visible and searches could be performed on the user field values. The name of the
user field appears as heading of the column in the Database Explorer.
Note
If the name entered for the user field already exists, a warning message
is displayed asking you to enter another name.

While creating a new profile, the users have to select the New option in the File
menu of the Profiles tab, in the Metadata Profiles Management window. This will
open the New Profile window. This window makes it possible to enter profile
information and to define the user fields which will appear each time the profile is
associated to an element.
A profile is a flat structure: there is no possibility to build trees with user fields
under other user fields.
