PeopleSoft HCM: Loading Employee Photo

2752220 Jan 16, 2020 3:16 AM

When we select and load a photo on the EMPLOYEE_PHOTO page we sometimes experience a reduction in the photo size after loading the photo. The photos are used for access cards and the reduction in size causes issues when they are too small.

Example 1:

File type = jpg

Original photo size = 1,443 KB

After loading and saving in Peoplesoft = 3 KB (too small for access cards)

Is it possible to prevent the compression of jpg files?

Hi there,

Do you see image after upload converting to PNG or is it still JPEG?
E-FLUID: The JPEG Images Getting Uploaded Are Getting Converted To PNG Images (Doc ID 2535888.1)

To avoid photo issue with size after compression, could you check this doc and see whether prior compression,
image is of recommended size.
Refer:
How to Upload a Photo in HRMS? (Doc ID 881772.1)

Other supporting docs:
Resize Employee Photo (HR_EMPL_PHOTO) AE Error (Doc ID 2163058.1)

Regards,

Hi Rahul

It remains a JPG image and I will check the recommended size.

This only happens to some photos and looks like it depends upon the quality of the photo.

I have checked the document and the photo is within the recommended size.

Why is is compressing to a much smaller size after loading the photo while others do not compress the same extent?

Try checking the resolution of the original photo.

Hi

The photos that are compressed to a much smaller size are of poor quality and is there a way to prevent compressing photo's so that the poor quality photos are loaded with their original size
