# Standard Participant and Organization Fields

## Viewing and Editing the Built-In Fields at the top of the Entity Forms: Participants, Households, Organizations, and Anonymous.

*Note: Changes to standard fields require [administrator permission](https://support.clearimpact.com/en/manage-users-1?hsLang=en). If additional fields are needed, you can create [custom participant or organization fields](https://support.clearimpact.com/en/custom-participant-and-organization-fields?hsLang=en), or [group fields](https://support.clearimpact.com/en/participant-and-organization-groups?hsLang=en).*

When adding participants to your [**Participants** list](https://support.clearimpact.com/en/participant-and-organization-lists?hsLang=en), default standard fields are included for personal and contact information. While the required and visibility status can be set for each standard field, the options for a few standard fields can be customized.

- Both Gender and Race can have built-in options hidden and custom options added.

- Participant ID can be adjusted in the Admin \> Instance Setting to automatically generate using a combination of letters and numbers or to allow users to enter a unique value.
- The Primary Worker field for assigning a participant to a user can be turned on or off.![](https://support.clearimpact.com/hs-fs/hubfs/image-png-Oct-24-2025-08-02-56-6309-PM.png?width=367&height=86&name=image-png-Oct-24-2025-08-02-56-6309-PM.png) 

 

When adding organizations to your [**Organizations** list](https://support.clearimpact.com/en/participant-and-organization-lists?hsLang=en), default standard fields are included for contact details. These fields cannot be changed, but you can enable the **Organization ID** field in [**Instance Settings**](https://support.clearimpact.com/en/instance-settings-1?hsLang=en).

Enabling the **Primary Worker** field means that you’ll be able to specify the Compyle user who works with the participant. Note that if enabled, this field is optional.
