Environment
SAP SuccessFactors Employee Central
Reproducing the Issue
- Add New Hire via Add New Employee
- Triggers workflow
- Workflow details page includes middle name, even if the value is disabled in BCUI
Cause
Enhancement was introduced with the 1905 code base and displaying all three fields is the designed behavior.
Resolution
- For the fields "First Name", "Middle Name" and "Last Name", the current behaviour is to always display them by ignoring the visibility of these 3 fields since they are key and special fields for new hire/contingent worker case.
- On workflow page, the workflow subject line always displays the new hire employee's full name, no matter the visibility configuration of any name field in data model.
