3236926 - Is there a way to avoid screen reader to read some button in the Recruiting UI - Recruiting Management

Symptom

How we can avoid screen readers announcing some specific button in the Recruiting UI?

Environment

SAP SuccessFactors Recruiting Management

Resolution

There's no standard functionality on the product that allows you to hide options from screen readers.

It's expected from screen readers that they announce many elements as possible on the screen so users get aware of all the options on the screen.

If you think that it would be a good enhancement for the product to have this option to hide buttons from the screen reader, as you may be aware, SAP provides a channel where you can propose, discuss, and vote on ideas to improve the product. Since we need around 20 votes for an idea to be considered, you could raise an Enhancement Request for your idea/suggestion ( KBA 2090228 ) and then create a topic on Customer Community to give visibility to this Request ( KBA 2893370 ).
