Reproducing the Issue
- Go to Team View in Learning.
- For a team member, open the ellipsis (more) menu and select View External Learning Requests.
- Observe that the New Request button is not available.
Cause
Working as per current system design
Resolution
- In Team View the Manager/supervisor page for External Learning Requests is read-only with no actions and only learners can create requests.
- To create an External Learning Request, have the learner open their own External Learning Request page and submit the request.
- If the ability for Managers/supervisors to create requests is required, submit an enhancement idea via the Influence portal: Submit idea on the Influence portal.
- Refer to the enhancement request process: 2090228 – How to submit enhancement requests for SAP SuccessFactors products.
