2732607 - LMS: Remove "MI" (middle initial) field in LMS.

When Creating a User in LMS, we want to remove the "MI" (middle initial) field.

SAP SuccessFactors Learning

Navigate to LMS Admin > Users Tab > Users > Add New > See the displayed "MI" (middle initial) field.

Unfortunately it isn't possible to remove this field from view as it is hard coded.

A suggested work around is to change the label of the field to whatever your wish (eg - Do not populate field). The Label for this field is label.MI

Here is a KBA on how to change Labels should you wish to do so:

Change Label - 2120336 - How to change the messages or text/labels displayed in LMS

Make the Label value blank - 2638457 - How to update a label with a blank value

If you wish to change this functionality, you can submit an enhancement in the Community in order to add this functionality and meet your business needs. You can do this hear at https://influence.sap.com/sap/ino/#/global?search=LMS&object=idea&variant=all

Another work around is to remove the field "MI" from the System Administration>>Configuration>>Entity configuration & under "Select Entity" drop down, choose "User"

Uncheck the Display box for the "Field Name" "Middle Name" & save changes. This way the field wouldn't also be visible after the user is created in the learning module.
