3799318 - Is it possible to set a field visibility as an IF condition in a Metadata Rule?

Symptom

I want to set the visibility of a field as an IF condition in a Metadata Rule, for example: If field.visibility == true THEN set field2.visibility = Not Visible

Environment

SAP SuccessFactors HCM Suite

Resolution

It is not possible to set field visibility in IF conditions on a Metadata Rule. This is a limitation that can be considered when using Metadata Rules of MDF Objects.

More details about this can be found on the next Guide: SAP Help Portal - Configuring Rules for Metadata of MDF Objects at the step 9.
