Please note:
- If pronouns element is not available under People Profile in Manage Business Configuration or in Succession Data Model, it means that it is not configured. To check how to configure it, please refer to the KBA 3265384 - Standard elements introduced in 2H 2022 Release not available in Manage Business Configuration.
- Users can only add Pronouns to themselves, not to other employees in the system. For admins, they need to proxy as the user in order to be able to add the pronouns or import them in bulk via Basic User Information.
