What is difference between <edit-template id="sysAllUserDirectorySetting"> and <edit-template id="sysVisibleUserDirectorySetting"> in the Data Model and BCUI

Image/data in this KBA is from SAP internal systems, sample data, or demo systems. Any resemblance to real data is purely coincidental.

• SAP SuccessFactors HCM Suite
• SAP SuccessFactors Employee Central

• The UDF can have certain specific set of standard fields and out of those fields, if you want to have only specific fields or want to change the order of those fields in UDF then you can add those fields under sysAllUserDirectorySetting
• sysAllUserDirectorySetting: In order to see your standard and userinfo elements on the Configure People Profile page, you add the element Id in the sysAllUserDirectorySetting
• sysVisibleUserDirectorySetting: the main use of this template is for configurating fields under Directory (inside Company Info) and also it provides visibility to standard fields in Manage Users, Employee Export file
• This means there could be 100's of standard fields but those fields you won't be able to add in People Profile as they won't be visible in the drop-down of People profile UI and on adding those fields under sysAllUserDirectorySetting you can view those fields under drop-down and then can add them in People profile. And to see them under Manage Users or Employee Export file you need to add them under sysVisibleUserDirectorySetting 

Example:

Via BCUI:

• Go to Manage Business Configuration > Employee Profile > View Template > sysUserDirectorySetting > sysAllUserDirectorySetting > add 'custom field or standard field' and save
• Go to Manage Business Configuration > Employee Profile > View Template > sysUserDirectorySetting > sysVisibleUserDirectorySetting > add 'custom field or standard field' and save

Via Provisioning:

• Go to Provisioning > Import/Export Data Model > Export the Succession Data Model and navigate down to the block <edit-template id="sysAllUserDirectorySetting">
  <edit-template id="sysAllUserDirectorySetting">
  <label>User Directory Setting(Entire Ordered List)</label>
  <description>User Directory Setting(Entire Ordered List)</description>
  <standard-element-ref refid="custom field or standard field"/>
  </edit-template>

• Go to Provisioning > Import/Export Data Model > Export the Succession Data Model and navigate down to the block <edit-template id="sysAllUserDirectorySetting">

  <edit-template id="sysVisibleUserDirectorySetting">
  <label>User Directory Setting(Visible)</label>
  <description>User Directory Setting(Visible)</description>
  <standard-element-ref refid="custom field or standard field"/>
  </edit-template>
