New customization options for WX

The Sage People Y24.2 release adds two new widely requested options to enable you to further customize your WX self service portal. You can now:

  • Change the Help link destination.

    By default the Help link in the WX self service portal delivers the Sage People generic help system at https://help-people.sage.com/wx. You can now specify your own destination website, enabling you to deliver customized content to your self service users.

  • Change the favicon used to open your WX self service portal.

    The favicon, also known as shortcut icon, website icon, tab icon, URL icon, or bookmark icon, provides a selectable image giving you access to WX. By default the favicon is a Sage branded image. You can now use an image of your choice.

Change the help link destination website

  1. Go to Setup and in Quick Find enter Installed packages.

  2. Find the Human Capital Management package and select Configure.

  3. On the Configure page scroll down to the WX Setup section.

  4. In Override default WX Help link enter the full url of the site you want to display in place of the Sage People WX help center. Include the protocol identifier, for example https://

  5. Select Save.

Next time you open or refresh your WX self service portal the new help link will be active.

Change the favicon

  1. Create a new static resource to hold the icon image file, and add the image to the static resource.

    The favicon must be saved as a 16pixel by 16pixel image in .ico, .png, or .svg format.

  2. Go to Setup and in Quick Find enter Installed packages.

  3. Find the Human Capital Management package and select Configure.

  4. On the Configure page scroll down to the WX Setup section.

  5. In Override default WX favicon enter the name of the static resource holding the favicon image you want to use in place of the default for your WX self service portal.

    If you leave the field blank Sage People displays the default favicon.

  6. Select Save.

The new favicon is displayed in place of the default and is available to select.
