1. Login to the instance as the user that belongs to the group mentioned in the rule
2. Go to Onboarding Dashboard
3. Select any new hire
4. See that the fields are still required

Configuration Issue:

• Onboarding Configuration object is missing or is not created, and hence the "Allow onInit Rules for Onboarding Pages" is not being honored. OR
• The "Allow onInit Rules for Onboarding Pages" field is set as "No".

Make sure that the Onboarding Configuration object is created/available in Manage Data. If it is not created yet, follow the steps below:

1. Navigate to Admin Center > Manage Data
2. Create New
3. Select Onboarding Configuration
4. External Code field select "Default Onboarding Configuration"
5. Select "Yes" for the "Allow onInit Rules for Onboarding Pages" field.
