Symptom
When Creating a User in LMS, we want to remove the "MI" (middle initial) field.
Environment
SAP SuccessFactors Learning
Reproducing the Issue
Navigate to LMS Admin > Users Tab > Users > Add New > See the displayed "MI" (middle initial) field.
Cause
Unfortunately it isn't possible to remove this field from view as it is hard coded.
Resolution
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
