Symptom
- Users are able to edit fields in Manage User page
- "View only" permissions not respected in Manage User page
Environment
SAP SuccessFactors HCM Suite
Reproducing the Issue
- Access the instance
- Go to Manage Users
- Select any user
- See that fields can be edited even when granted only with "view" permission
Cause
It's expected that a user with Manage Users permission is able to edit all fields
Resolution
- This is an expected behavior since “Manage Users” is an admin permission.
- If it is granted, in Manage Users UI field permissions are ignored.
