3762024 - Control Fields Visibility on Custom MDF History section

Symptom

  • When checking the latest record in the custom MDF history, additional fields display even though visibility is restricted by object-based or configurable UI rules.
  • The History UI displays additional fields while summary card and the latest record UI display the correct fields.

Environment

SAP SuccessFactors HCM Suite 2605

Reproducing the Issue

Cause

This is a known product limitation. The History UI for existing Manage Data entries does not evaluate field-level visibility configured through Configurable UI (object/UI rules), which can result in additional fields being displayed regardless of the defined visibility conditions.

Resolution

  • This behavior is expected due to a known product limitation. Field-level visibility rules are not supported in the History UI for existing entries, and there is currently no available workaround to alter this behavior.
  • Kindly request you to submit an enhancement request to have the above functionality considered within future development cycles – you can do this on our Customer Community Portal at http://community.successfactors.com/ ,
