2523518 - How to configure owner-role for section comments in PMv12A - Performance Management

Symptom

If you want to give a field permission but limit the visibility to the fields that were filled by a specific role, this is possible under Manage Templates.

For example, the Employee should read the Section Comments during a specific step, but only the one given by the manager. On this scenario, the Manager is the Owner Role.

Environment

SAP SuccessFactors Performance Management

Cause

The owner-role is supported in PMv12A, so you might see the option available in Admin Center > Manage templates.

Resolution

For the permission of section comments, apart from defining type, roles, and route steps, you also need to select the owner roles who provide the comments. Therefore, you define whose section comments the permitted roles can read or edit.

Follow steps below:

  1. Go to Admin Center;
  2. Click on Performance Management;
  3. Click on Manage Templates;
  4. Open the template you want to change;
  5. Click on the section where you want to give the permissions;
  6. Click on "Show advanced options...";
  7. Scroll down until you see the field permissions;
  8. Select none/read/write according to what you would like to achieve;
  9. Select Section Permission;
  10. Now you see the option to add owner-role, which is the role that owns that filled the comment.
