Impact Assessment

This feature may require configuration review, user communication, and regression testing of related processes in User Experience implementations. It becomes available after you enable specific switches in Admin Center. When you enable the enhanced People Search, both the enhanced Autocomplete Search and Advanced Search activate automatically. Implementation teams should verify that existing configurations remain valid and test core business scenarios after the upgrade to confirm correct behavior.

Test Recommendations
• Verify the feature is enabled and accessible from the expected navigation path or configuration area in a test environment. • Test the end-to-end scenario with representative test data covering both happy paths and error conditions. • Validate correct behavior across all relevant user roles and permission configurations (admin, manager, employee). • Test edge cases: empty or missing values, boundary conditions, concurrent users, and large data sets. • Confirm that existing integrations, workflows, and downstream processes are not affected by the change. • Test feature visibility and access controls across different RBP roles to confirm correct enforcement.
