3691290 - Custom Navigation links incorrectly open in new tab instead of current tab in Full Employee Profile

• Links created via Configure Custom Navigation, set to open in the current tab, incorrectly open in a new tab when accessed through the Full Employee Profile.
• This behaviour is observed for external links, including document generation links, linked to menu location "person - take action".
• In the legacy Employee Profile, the links function correctly and open in the current tab as configured.

SAP SuccessFactors HCM Suite 

1. Configure a custom navigation link to open a URL in the current tab and link it to the menu location "person - take action".
2. Access the legacy Employee Profile and navigate to a user's profile.
3. Select "Action" > Take Action > and click on the configured link. Confirm that the link opens correctly in the same tab.
4. Enable the Full Employee Profile.
5. Navigate to "All Actions" > under "take action" and click on the same link. Observe that the link opens in a new tab, which is incorrect behaviour.

• Engineering confirmed that the API requires code correction to address the issue.

1. Engineering has provided a fix for the issue.
2. The fix will be delivered as part of the m2512 patch, scheduled for production deployment on December 10.
