3488006 - Behavior of Initialize UI rule - Historical data not showing

The record of old data is not showing in the MDF portlet on the People Profile when opening the portlet on a larger screen. 

"Image/data in this KBA is from SAP internal systems, sample data, or demo systems. Any resemblance to real data is purely coincidental."

This behavior is expected when you have some visibility UI rule set as "onInit" as onInit rule works as the onLoad rule as well.

The rule will trigger at the time of creation of a record, as well as on the onLoad.

For this reason, when opening a Custom MDF Portlet in People Profile, the historical data in the field with onInit visibility rules won't appear.

An option is to have the initial visibility set as 'yes' (for all UI fields you wish to be visible IN the historical data, on the People Profile) and, based on 'onChange' rules, change the visibility accordingly:
