3661751 - Custom MDF portlet not visible/editable for Future Hires

• Cannot see the custom MDF portlet for a future hired employee
• Users are unable to access or attach documents in People Profile for employees with a future hire date, even though they have the required permissions to do so.

SAP SuccessFactors HCM Suite

Role-Based Permissions (RBP) does not account for inactive users, including future-dated hires who have not yet reached their hire date.

It is expected that RBP does not take into account inactive users, hence the permission to view/edit a custom MDF portlet in the Latest People Profile won't be effective until the hire date. 

At this point, BizX does not offer any workaround to perform any action related to upload or view MDF objects for inactive user (specially if they were not ever active in the system).

NOTE: This also applies for documents, as they cannot be uploaded for future-dated hires. An alternative that may meet the needs to upload documents for future hires is to adopt SuccessFactors Onboarding: SAP SuccessFactors Onboarding | SAP Help Portal.
