Symptom
When the user selects "My Reporting Line (for Managers) and Me" in a report, the line manager sees employees who are not part of his reporting line.
Environment
- SAP Cloud for Customer
Reproducing the Issue
- Go to Business Analytics work center.
- Go to Design Reports view.
- Search for any report which has "Employee Responsible" field.
- Select the relative selection "My Reporting Line (for Managers) and Me" for the field "Employee Responsible".
- You will see all the employees of the complete reporting line in the org structure of a manager including the current user.
Cause
The selection of "My Reporting Line (for Managers) and Me" represents all the employees of the reporting line in the org structure of a manager including the current user. This includes the selected manager, their employees, and if their employees are also managers of a reporting line, then their employees are considered as well.
Note that the system will check for the reporting line downwards of the selected manager, within the organizational hierarchy.
Resolution
You can use instead "My Direct Reports (for Managers)", that represents all the employees who directly report to the user.
