Configuring the People Profile to Display Development Goals

You are required to make changes to the People Profile. You must first download the data model from Provisioning and then configure the People Profile.

1. Confirm the Development Objectives portlet is in the data model.

   1. Log in to Provisioning and select your training instance.

   2. Scroll down to Succession Management and choose Import/Export Data Model.

   3. Export the Data Model (save the file). The file is saved as an XML file. Copy the file from your Downloads folder to the same folder that contains the Development Plan Template files. Make sure the sf-form.dtd file is in the same folder as your XML file.

   4. Open the Data Model file you saved in your XML editor. Confirm the DTD file location is correct based on the location of your DTD. Validate the XML after any changes.

   5. Search for the background element with the ID sysScoreCardDevelopmentObjectivesPortlet to confirm it is in the data model and confirm the label reads "Development Goals Portlet."Also make sure your background element has the <data-field> code with the label of "Development Goals."

      Code snippet

      Copy code

      <background-element id="sysScoreCardDevelopmentObjectivesPortlet" type-id="101">
          <label>Development Goals Portlet</label>
          <data-field id="title" field-name="vfld1" required="true" hidden="true" max-length="4000" max-file-size-KB="1000">
              <label>Development Goals</label>
          </data-field>
      </background-element>
