Displaying Person Extra Information Types (EITs) as Talent Profile Page Regions

To view additional details of workers, you can display the Person Extra Information Types (EITs) as regions on the Talent Profile page. You can display a maximum of 10 EIT regions. Use the Oracle Application Framework Personalization feature to display EITs as regions.

On the Talent Profile page, you can add the EIT region and then configure the Flex: Descriptive Flex (HrEitDescFlex) item in this region to display contexts and segments of your choice.

Note: The EIT region does not support More link.

Restricting Access to Sensitive EIT Information

When you display EIT regions, there may be some information that is sensitive, which requires to be hidden from users who log in to the application. For example, if you configure an EIT to display additional succession planning information, managers can view such additional succession planning information when they navigate to their Talent Profile page as workers. To restrict the display of such sensitive information, use the 'ShowLoggedInDtls' formvalue available with every EIT on the Talent Profile page. To control the display of EIT information for the logged in manager, you must specify the value using the OAF Personalization feature. If the value of this formvalue is set to 'Y', then the EIT information is visible to the logged in manager. If the value of this Form Value is set to 'N', then the EIT information is not displayed to the logged in manager.

Complete the following steps to restrict access to sensitive EIT information:

  1. On the Talent Profile page, click the Personalize page link.

  2. Select the 'Content' tab.

  3. In the EIT region, click the Personalize properties (pencil) icon.

  4. Select the Complete View radio button.

  5. Click the Expand All link.

  6. Click the Personalize icon for the Form Value personalization item.

  7. Set the value to "Y' or 'N' as required.

  8. Click Apply to save your work.
