Hiding Field in Employee Profile

[ahrbmartin]

Hi,

We are using OrgChart 3.0 SP1

I would like to hide the FAX field in the Employee Profile view (usually on the right pane window)

We successfully hid the Fax field in one version of Employee Profile Position view by commenting out the Fax field in the files:

xxxAdmin_Config\___000___SAP_Live_2\AppResources\detaildataconfiguration

SAPPositionDetailsConfiguration_Data.xml

SAPPositionIncumbentsDetailsConfig_Data.xml

Copied that to:

xxx\Admin_Config\___000___SAP_Live_2\.delta\AppResources\detaildataconfiguration

SAPPositionDetailsConfiguration_Data

SAPPositionIncumbentsDetailsConfig_Data

But when we do an Employee search from the directory listing, select the Employee, the FAX field is still there under Employee Profile.

Kindly advise where we can comment out this FAX field, it seems to be in different XMLs but i cannot find it.

Thanks!

Hi Martin,

Check out ..\AppResources\detaildataconfiguration\SAPPositionIncumbentsDetailsConfig_Data.xml

Best regards,

Luke, Thanks for the reply. I have the "#<field name="Fax"/>" inserted (hashed out) in that file in both the main directory and the \.delta\AppResources\.... directory.

After changes are made in these XMLs, do we need to go into AdminConsole and "Save" then "Publish" ?

Or will they automatically be shown?

Hi Martin,

A hash (#) doesn't work, you need to comment out likein HTML:

<!--
<field name="Fax"/>
-->

or

<!-- <field name="Fax"/> -->

Once you have made the change in the .delta folder load the build and publish it.

Best regards,

Luke

Hi Luke,

I made the change you suggested with the proper "comment out" technique, loaded and published

It seems to have worked, now we get this though:

Position view:

No FAX field anymore

Employee view:

No FAX field anymore, but still says "n/a" where the data would be.

Luke,

Disregard the last post. It works now and the FAX field seems to be completely gone, I think that was a latency issue with my browser sessions.

THANKS!

You are the man! Resolved.
