Detailed Description

A new standard element called 'company' has been introduced to represent the legal entity associated with a user. For Employee Central customers, the field value is synchronized from the Legal Entity object based on hard-coded mapping. For non-Employee Central customers, the field can be updated through Manage Users, Employee Import admin tools, or User OData API. The field can be included in Story reports and Table reports for data analysis.

Impact Assessment

This enhancement improves data versatility by introducing a new standard element that represents the legal entity associated with users. Employee Central customers must run the Synchronize Business Configuration job and enable the element in Manage Business Configuration to make it configurable. The feature requires specific role-based permissions and configuration steps, including triggering an initial sync from the Legal Entity object to the company field for all users.

Test Recommendations
• Verify the Synchronize Business Configuration job runs successfully in Scheduled Job Manager • Confirm the company element is enabled in Manage Business Configuration Employee Profile Standard Element • Test the Refresh Legal Entity button in Company System and Logo Settings to trigger initial sync • Validate that the company field appears in Story reports and Table reports • Test updating the company field through Employee Import admin tool • Verify the company field can be updated through Manage Users and User OData API • Check the HRIS Sync job status in Admin Center Scheduled Job Manager Job Monitor • Confirm role-based permissions are properly configured for viewing and editing the company field
