Name Fields

Users now have two distinct First Name fields in the system: HR First Name & Display First Name.

HR First Name

This is automatically set by system processes, like User Import feeds and Mass User Uploads. This name is typically used on HR sign-offs (such as digital acknowledgments in Compliance modules) unless overridden for a specific user.

Display First Name

This starts out matching the HR First Name but can be customized within the LMS. It’s the name that appears throughout the system and can be configured to replace the HR First Name on HR sign-offs on a user-by-user basis.
