It is strongly suggested, as a matter of Best Practice for your college, to continue the process and add the Preferred Name to the Additional Names pages to allow the Preferred Name to display in the CS Pillar. To ensure consistency, this should be done for all preferred name entries performed in Modify a Person transactions, whether or not the person is faculty.

Refer to the 9.2 Adding/Updating Additional Names QRG.

Due to a new HCM>FSCM Oracle sync Issue, any updates to the name fields in HCM (including adding new employees) will result in blank name fields in the FSCM>Expenses Employee Profiles. Corrections to the profiles will need to be made manually. The Blank fields will need to be populated before you are able to save any other EX Profile updates.  We are working with Oracle on a solution.
