You can create a skill-mapping search to find a qualified person in Dynamics 365 Human Resources. Skill-mapping searches return results for criteria you enter by looking through the following information:
- Skills

For example, you can find people in your organization who have earned their CPA.
Skill-mapping profiles allow you to find current employees or candidates with qualifications that directly correspond to business needs.
