3743268 - Behavior Boolean fields with picklist on MDF Objects - 1H2026

• Boolean fields configured at the position MDF are displaying three values: "yes," "no," and "no selection".
• Previously, only "yes" and "no" were displayed. Switching the fields to mandatory does not impact as "no selection" remains selectable.
• This impact boolean fields with onchange rule attached.

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

This is working as expected.

This is working by design.

The "No Selection" option was intentionally introduced for Boolean fields when an onChange rule is attached on it .

When no onChange rule is associated with a Boolean field, the system defaults the value to "No" as expected. However, when an onChange rule is attached, "No Selection" semantically mean — the user has not yet made a selection, as the rule may get triggered based on the Boolean field's value either "yes" or "no".

To accurately represent this unselected state and ensure rule evaluation is based on an explicit user choice, the "No Selection" option is presented in the dropdown. This indicates that no value has been selected yet for the Boolean field.
