4. Click Save.
5. In the Directories page, click the new directory.
6. Click the User Attributes tab.
   All the attributes from the Identity & Access Management > Setup > User Attributes page are listed for the local directory. Attributes that are marked required on that page are listed as required in the local directory page too.
7. Customize the attributes for the local directory.
   You can specify which attributes are required and which attributes are optional. You can also change the order in which the attributes appear.

   Important: The attributes userName, firstName, lastName, and email are always required for local directories.
   • To make an attribute required, select the check box next to the attribute name.
   • To make an attribute optional, deselect the check box next to the attribute name.
   • To change the order of the attributes, click and drag the attribute to the new position.
   If an attribute is required, when you create a user you must specify a value for the attribute.
   For example:
