3708306 - Custom MDF Object not available for selection when creating a Card in Latest People Profile

Symptom

  • A custom MDF object cannot be added to a new card in Configure Latest People Profile.
  • The same custom MDF object is already added to another card.

Environment

SAP SuccessFactors HCM Suite

Reproducing the Issue

  1. Go to "Configure Latest People Profile" 
  2. Under "Full Profile", select any category 
  3. Click "Add Card"
  4. Select "Custom MDF Object" and click "Apply"
  5. In the "Object Name" field, note that the required custom MDF object is not available for selection.

Cause

The custom MDF object is already used in another card, either in the same category or in a different category. Custom MDF objects can only be assigned to one card at a time and cannot be added to multiple cards or categories simultaneously.

Resolution

If the card containing the custom MDF object is located in another category, move the card to the desired category:

  1. Go to Configure Latest People Profile.
  2. Under Full Profile, locate the category that currently contains the card with the custom MDF object.
  3. Find the card and click the three-dot icon (...).
  4. Select Move to Another Category.
  5. From the drop-down list, choose the target category.
  6. Save the changes.

Additional information on moving custom cards between categories, reordering categories, and reordering cards within a category is available in SAP Help Configuring Layout for Full Profile.
