3774095 - Generic Business Rules Do Not Hide Fields in Onboarding Custom Tasks

Symptom

  • In Onboarding custom task scenarios, custom task fields remain visible even after configuring a generic business rule for field hiding.

  • Business rule changes do not reflect in the custom task UI.

  • The administrator expects field visibility to be controlled dynamically, but no change occurs.

Environment

SAP SuccessFactors Onboarding

Cause

This is a product limitation.

Generic Business Rules are not supported for dynamically controlling the visibility of fields within Onboarding custom tasks. As a result, field visibility cannot be modified through business rule execution in this scenario.

Resolution

Hiding custom task fields with a generic business rule is often limited or not supported in onboarding custom task scenarios.
