Symptom
- Biographical Data tab in Employee File does not show the same amount of standard fields and tabs for every employee.
- Certain standard fields or tabs are not available for some employees, even when they are assigned to the same org unit.
- Standard Fields or tabs are also not available for selection via Personalisation and Key User Adaption mode.
Environment

- Navigate to Personal Data > Biographical Data.
