Why I picked it
A long, flag-heavy country list gets simpler for teams that only ever use a handful of countries.
Where it helps
HR entering an address picks from a shorter, clearer country list.

From Oracle's note
A small but practical 26B improvement that HR admins managing Redwood person pages have been waiting for. Lets administrators configure exactly which columns display in the Countries and Phone Countries dropdowns on Redwood person pages, via HCM Experience Design Studio. Previously these fields were fixed: Countries LOV showed Flag, Code, Country; Phone Countries LOV showed Flag, Phone Country Code, Code, Country.
- Add, remove or reorder columns in the Countries and Phone Countries dropdowns
- Applies across Personal Details, Contact Info, Identification Info and more
- Configured via the Search Configuration page in HCM Experience Design Studio
If changes don't display immediately, clear your browser cache. If your users are navigating through a long flag-heavy country list when they only ever work with a handful of countries, this is a simple usability improvement worth configuring.
