Environment

SAP SuccessFactors HCM Suite

Reproducing the Issue

  1. Navigate to the 'Manage My Team' Quick Action tile.
  2. Observe the 'Links' section.
  3. Notice the presence of the 'Proxy Now' link.

Cause

The 'Proxy Now' link under the 'Manage My Team' Quick Action tile is granted to anyone who has proxy assignment to that user.

Resolution

People with 'Proxy Management' permission automatically have proxy access to every user account in the target population of the permission role, causing the link to be displayed.

If the user does not have this permission, then the user was assigned as a proxy to that account by a system administrator, or by the account holder.

If the manager does not have 'Proxy Management' permission and you still want to remove the link, an administrator can remove the proxy assignment, which will consequently remove the link
