Updated Date

The date that the list was most recently updated displays to the right of the list title. If this is a shared list, it will show the date on which the list was shared and the user that shared the list.

Sorting/Succession Options

The following sort options are available:

  • Sort By - Sort the list by last name or first name. If tenure is enabled by the administrator in View People Preferences, then you can also sort by tenure. The list is sorted by last name by default.

  • Color by - For portals with Succession, you can identify employees by a succession metric. The metrics that display are the default metrics defined by the administrator in View People Preferences. When a metric is selected, the results are colorized to identify each employee by their rating for the metric. If an employee is not rated, then they display with gray diagonal stripes in the color bar. Note: As with existing functionality, the colors for succession metrics are defined in Custom Field Administration when configuring the Succession custom field.
