Symptom
It is possible to change the text fields on employee profile portlets to become text areas rather than a standard text field, so we can increase the amount of characters that can be included in those fields.
Environment
SuccessFactors Employee Profile
Resolution
This enhancement is available for Background Element Portlets, and would allow users to visualize a larger box to type their texts. To enable it, follow:
- Go to: Manage Business Configuration
- Click: Employee Profile
- Click: Background Elements
- Click in the target Background Element
- Click in Details the target field
- Field Text Area Enabled, set: Yes
- Save
This is how the text area field would appear in a portlet:
"Image/data in this KBA is from SAP internal systems, sample data, or demo systems. Any resemblance to real data is purely coincidental."
