Manage Business Configuration : Custom Fields

[former_member99545]

Hi,

I am attempting to create a custom field in the Job Information Portlet/Block on SAP SF EC.

The field is a simple picklist with yes or no options.

When setting up a new employee the field is present. However it is not visible for current employees who are already on the system, even when updating their employment information via 'Take Action'>'Change Job and Compensation Info'

There is a field that is identical with the exception of the label name and this is visible and working, however the new field is not.

How do I make the new field visible for current employees?

Thanks

Tom

Dear comex_,

This seems to be a permissions issue. Did you check all necessary roles and granted the field permission after creating it? Check also the targer population for your roles.

Thank you.

Best Regards,

Hi Thomas,

I hope you are doing good.

The issue seems to be with the RBP permissions. Please navigate to Manage Permission Roles > identify the role that grants Employee Self Service (ESS) permissions> Open the RBP role > Click 'Permissions' > Click 'Employee Central Effective Dated Entities' under 'User Permissions'> Scroll down to 'Job Information' section and search for the new field. Grant necessary permissions and save the RBP role. Log out and log back in to the system and check whether the field is visible for the employees.

Hope this helps.

Kind regards,

Ajeesh
