Environment

SAP SuccessFactors HCM Suite

Reproducing the Issue

  1. Create a custom MDF object or other standard object.
  2. Configure the object to be displayed in Employee Profile
  3. Observe that some fields are not displayed by default and require pressing "Show More" to view them.

Cause

The default setting for displaying fields in the profile screen is set to compressed, causing some fields to be hidden.

Resolution

If the "Show More" link is displayed outside the block, then the collapsed display is controlled by Employee Profile, instead of block object.

  1. Navigate to Configure People Profile.
  2. Go to General Settings.
  3. Check the option "Set all fields as expanded by default".
  4. Confirm the changes and verify that all fields are displayed by default.
