Cause

  • The permissions View Current, View History will be grayed out when any permission succeeding them (Edit/Insert, Correct, Delete) are enabled.
  • This is because as per design logic, a user can Edit/Insert, Correct, Delete the field only when they can view the field and its History page in first place which means view Current/History should be enabled for it.

Resolution

  • This is expected behavior.
  • To enable RBP for View Current, View History please disable the succeeding permissions on the right:
