Some clients like to create custom 'Display as' values that contain a worker's "Known as" name to show in the system. At the moment it seems like the system will only use the First and Last name in the People workspace. This can be confusing when searching for colleagues. Admins should have the ability to configure how the People workspace will display a worker's name.
Similarly this is also the case on the Worker master. The Worker grid will show the configured Display as value, but when the record is opened, the first and last name are used on the header.

I do not believe this has been entirely delivered. I can see the "Display as" value on the Worker record in self-service and on the Worker record shown in the People workspace but in the reporting hierarchy on the left side of the People workspace it still shows as FirstMiddleLast. Also the Position hierarchy (HcmPositionHierarchyView) is still showing the FirstMiddleLast.

Functionality that is really needed in a large organization. This should also facilitate the search function.
