Symptom
- In the latest People Profile, a custom portlet displays the message "There's currently no data for you" even though there is an entry for the user in Manage Data.
- The custom object have Expand/Collapse functionality configured with the business rule.
Image/data in this KBA is from SAP internal systems, sample data, or demo systems. Any resemblance to real data is purely coincidental.
Environment
SAP SuccessFactors HCM
Reproducing the Issue
- Log into the instance.
- Navigate to a user's profile in the latest People Profile.
- Check the affected custom object portlet. The message "There's currently no data for you" appears.
- Navigate to Manage Data. An entry for the user is present.
- Check the business rule configured with the object and there's a Expand/Collapse functionality configured with it.
Cause
The issue arises due to the new UX design of the People Profile, which does not support the Expand/Collapse functionality.
Resolution
- Please note that the Expand/Collapse functionality will not be supported in the new UX design. The following reasons were provided by our Product Team:
-
- The new design for the latest people profile is responsive -- which mean it make use of complete space available on the screen so there is better utilization of the space and form length is reduced.
- There are group names on the top which allows user to navigate to specific section rather than scrolling manually.
- Remove the business rule associated with the composite association. This should allow the portlet to be displayed correctly in the latest People Profile.
