How to remove Cell Phone & Fax details in the Details area (from Emp Business Card)

[Former Member]

Dear All

We have a requirement to remove the Employee Cell phone & Fax details fields from the details area.

How to remove it from the 'Employee Business Card' Details option available in the Details Designer ss there are no options to delete / unselect specific fields on the  'Employee Business Card' Detail.

Do we have to directly remove them from the respective Details.

What are the options available. Kindly guide.

Regards

Add (by copying from the standard build) or amend the following files into this folder in your build:

  .delta/AppResources/detaildataconfiguration/

If Staged, then see files:

     EmployeeDetailsData.xml

          EmployeeDetailsDataMoreDetail.xml

Remove 2 fields by amending like this:

          <fieldset name="ContactInfoData" max="0">

                        <field name="EMAIL"/>

                        <field name="PHONE"/>

                        <!-- Removed CELL and FAX (from employee profile on position details panel) -->

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

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

           </fieldset>

If Live, then see files:

     SAPPositionIncumbentsContactInfoFaxDetailsConfig_Data.xml

     SAPPositionIncumbentsContactInfoCellDetailsConfig_Data.xml

Again, comment out the unwanted fields in each file.

Or you could also disable the section in the corresponding detail by amending

     enable="true"    to   enable="false"

in folder   .delta/AppResources/detailconfiguration/

     SAPPositionIncumbentsContactInfoFaxDetailsConfig.xml

     SAPPositionIncumbentsContactInfoCellDetailsConfig.xml

Dear Stephen

But currently we are on SP3 & using Live connection, We are unable to locate & find (manually & using search option) the XML files -SAPPositionIncumbentsContactInfoFaxDetailsConfig_Data.xml & SAPPositionIncumbentsContactInfoCellDetailsConfig.xml in the path - <build>/.delta/AppResources/detailconfiguration/

Hence, in SP3 the files might be different. Using your logic & inputs we were able to acheive the result by the below steps:

We commented the code in the file OrgUnitPositionEmployeeDetail_Data.XML & placed it in the location
<build>/.delta/AppResources/detaildataconfiguration/

<!-- Removed CELL and FAX (from employee profile on position details panel) -->
                        <!-- <field name="CELL"/> -->
                        <!-- <field name="FAX"/> -->

Thanks Stephen for your inputs.

SP3 ... you should have said!

I'm glad you managed to apply the principle of my answer to your build.

Cheers,

Stephen
