This field is only enabled if a path has been entered in the Path for Photograph field. Select the format of photos displayed in the Employee Directory from the drop-down list. The options are set up in the MVPHEX narrative category.

Note: You can only use one format type at any one time.
Format for Fullname
Applies only to legacy MyView.
Enter the format to use when displaying the employee's full name in the Employee Directory, Manager module and the Manager Recruitment module. You can enter text which is displayed as entered, and / or use the following strings to represent components of the employee's name as stored in ResourceLink:
%F | Forename |
%S | Surname |
%T | Title |
%I | Initials |
%K | Known As Forename |
For example, for an employee called Jonathan Smith, known as Jon, the following entries in this field would give the following results:
Entry | Display in Employee Selection Screen |
%F %S | Jonathan Smith |
%K %S %P | Jon Smith SALES1 |
In addition, the entry in this field determines the order in which employees are displayed in the Manager module and the Manager Recruitment module. For example, if this field has %S %F, employees are sorted in surname order and their names are displayed in the format; surname, first name. You can change the order in which the employees are displayed, by changing the entry in this field, for example, entering %K %S would sort the employees by their known as name.
