3525552 - Custom MDF object fields are displayed with field Names instead of the UI/field Labels

Custom MDF object displays fields with Field Name instead of Field Label.

• Metadata Framework (MDF)
• SAP SuccessFactors HCM Suite

1. Create a custom MDF Object
2. In a field, click in Details and add a Label to it
3. Search for the object in People Profile or Manage Data
4. See the field name is showing the original name set for the field in Object Definition, instead of the Label.

This can be a cache-related behavior

Clear MDF cache:

Go to Admin Center > OData API Metadata Refresh and Export > Refresh Metadata Cache

Make a dummy change in a label of any field in Object Definition and save it.

After that, you can revert the dummy changes.

Then check if the behavior is resolved, if it does not solve the issue, please raise a ticket to support team under component LOD-SF-MDF-UI, for further investigation.
