2913482 - Label is missing after its type was changed from Public to Private - Report Center

I changed a Public Label to Private one and now I am not able to see the label anymore.

Note: This article is applicable only to the new Label functionality and UI changes (Reports vs Label) introduced in the b2005 release.

SAP SuccessFactors HXM Suite

• Report Center

1. Login to the instance as user A
2. Access Report Center > Manage Labels
3. Create a new Public Label. Example – testLabel1
4. Logout of the instance
5. Login to the instance as user B
6. Access Report Center > Manage Labels
7. Search for and edit testLabel1
8. Change it to a private Label
9. User B can no longer see testLabel1
10. Logout of the instance and log back in as User A again
11. Only user A is able to see the label now. 

Working as Expected

• Like Reports, Labels also have the concept of ownership and the names of the corresponding authors of the Labels will be displayed in the 'Labels' view
• When a Public Label is changed to a private one, the owner of the Label will not be changed
• As a result, it automatically becomes a Private Label visible only to the Label's original author

If need be, the second user just has to create a new Private Label for themselves.
Note that two users CAN create labels Private labels with the same name.
