3471685 - Enable Person-Based Background Information Blocks setting does not have effect in Talent Card for Concurrent Employments

Symptom

Enable Person-Based Background Information Blocks is enabled in Company System and Logo Settings admin tool, but Talent Card shows "No Records Found" when looking at a specific employment of an employee with Concurrent Employments.

  • SAP SuccessFactors Succession Management
  • SAP SuccessFactors Employee Central

Reproducing the Issue

  1. Go to Calibration
  2. Open affected session

  4. See sections showing "No Records Found", however when clicking on the link to the EP portlet the data is shown

OR

  1. Go to Succession Org Chart
  2. Search for a user with Concurrent Employments
  3. Open Talent Card

Resolution

This is expected behaviour based on system design. The switch Enable Person-Based Background Information Blocks was designed only for background block in People Profile page UI. For people with multiple employments, please use the dropdown menu on the Talent Card to select the employment you want to display.

Note: For users with Global Assignment the data is consistent for both employments in Talent Card based on a Product Enhancement.

If you think the current behavior does not satisfy the business requirements, please raise an Enhancement Request to have a change in the functionality considered within future development cycles.
