user-defined

Set by you

User-defined describes something created or specified by the user rather than built into the system.

In computing and software, user-defined functions, variables, or settings are custom elements users create to suit their needs, as opposed to default or predefined options: The spreadsheet allows user-defined formulas.

The term appears in technical documentation and programming contexts.
