Symptom
You would like to show the middle name and second last name under the "Proxy" feature as it appears in the Action Search box.
Image/data in this KBA is from SAP internal systems, sample data, or demo systems. Any resemblance to real data is purely coincidental.
Environment
SAP SuccessFactors HXM Suite
Reproducing the Issue
- Go to proxy search
- Look for a user
- You will see only three names associated to this user
- Go to Action Search box
- Look for the same user again
- You will see four names associated to this user
Cause
The name that is populated in the proxy search is pulled from the UDF - User Data File. The name that is populated in the Action Search box is pulled from Employee Central.
Resolution
If you want to add more names in the proxy search function, you may add them in the UDF File by editing one of the columns of Middle Name or Last Name.
