Missing employee description

[aaroncalderon]

Hi All! 

In the application "projects-actuales (design studio)", while analizing the projects generated, it doesn't show in the description the employee name for each project, the information showed is "xxxx". I've filtered the information by "personal number" (the one which also doesn't show the description, only its ID). This description was shown before correctly, could you tell me how to fix this  please?

kind Regards!

Hi Aaron,

Thanks for posting the query here. The masking feature related to this app is a standard feature introduced from S/4HANA Cloud 2011 along with other apps related to Accounting for Data protection & privacy compliance reason. Please check the same here - https://help.sap.com/viewer/085edb30fb3d413da552832f3d5c01c0/latest/en-US/586cc442c1cd4a8f8bbade50cb....

As mentioned in the documentation here -

Changes to Full Name Attribute for Data Protection and Privacy Compliance

To be compliant with data protection and privacy rules the real name of a person, to which a cost line from an accounting report can be assigned, should not be displayed as default. For compatibility reasons this attribute (full name) cannot be removed. Instead, the content of the full name attribute - if available - is masked with XXXXX.

Thanks,

Saumi
