Detailed Description

The OData V2 API entities used to query configuration settings for the legacy People Profile in the Configure People Profile admin tool are being deprecated. These entities will reach End of Maintenance on May 15, 2026 and will be completely deleted on November 13, 2026. The deprecation is due to a redesigned People Profile experience featuring Profile Preview and Spotlight with more intuitive user interactions, which is enabled by default starting from the 1H 2024 release.

Impact Assessment

Organizations using the legacy People Profile configuration APIs must migrate to the new People Profile experience before November 13, 2026. The affected OData V2 entities include EmployeeProfilePageConfig, EmployeeProfileHeaderConfig, EmployeeProfileSectionConfig, EmployeeProfileSubSectionConfig, EmployeeProfileBlockContent, EmployeeProfileBlockLink, EmployeeProfileFieldConfig, and MDFBlockConfig. Customers should begin planning their migration immediately, as SAP will no longer fix bugs or deliver patches after May 15, 2026.

Test Recommendations
• Review current implementations using the deprecated OData V2 API entities (EmployeeProfilePageConfig, EmployeeProfileHeaderConfig, EmployeeProfileSectionConfig, EmployeeProfileSubSectionConfig, EmployeeProfileBlockContent, EmployeeProfileBlockLink, EmployeeProfileFieldConfig, MDFBlockConfig) • Test the new People Profile experience with Profile Preview and Spotlight functionality • Validate that all custom configurations and integrations work with the new People Profile design • Plan and execute migration from legacy People Profile configuration APIs to the new experience before May 15, 2026
