Sort Employees Based on User Culture Setting

You can configure the People List to respect the culture settings of the logged in user when sorting employees by name. Some languages have special rules that don’t apply to sorting using the English language. When this functionality is configured, when a user logged in with one of those languages loads the people list, the Name field is sorted alphabetically according to their culture setting.

Role feature access: Application Container > People > People List > Sort Employees by User Culture

For example, users logged in using the Czech culture setting expect to see employees whose names begin with “Ch” shown after names starting with “H” and before names starting with “I,” as shown in the following screenshot:

However, if the user doesn’t have this role feature assigned, Dayforce sorts the list as shown in the following screenshot:
