Person number for family and emergency contacts

Why I picked it

A small change that stops mix-ups when contacts share similar names.

Where it helps

HR updating a contact record can tell two contacts with the same name apart at a glance.

From Oracle's note

When contact names are similar, seeing the person number on My Contacts gives HR a clearer identifier for the record they’re reviewing. The change makes the number visible in context without changing contact access or person-number generation.

• Show the Person Number attribute in the My Contacts region of the Family and Emergency Contacts page.
• Use a Visual Builder Studio rule to make the attribute visible.

This controls visibility, not editing. Manual person-number entry remains governed by the person-number generation method and the user’s access.
