Hi @MalikB , 
Yes, you can use “is one of”  in a UI Policy condition but what is your business requirement here?

Hi @MalikB 

From the example of your screenshots---

• vs_var_dotation_hidden and vs_var_dotation_futur_hidden are likely hidden variables.

• They are being evaluated using the "is one of" condition, and the values being compared against ("typeDotation"...") appear to be string values or sys_ids of records that are treated as strings in this context.

it will works but there are some things you need to know ---

For straightforward show/hide, mandatory, or read-only requirements based on simple conditions (is one of, starts with, equal to, etc.), UI Policies are superior.

Drawbacks of UI Policy

• UI Policies do not have access to the newValue or oldValue of a field, which Client Scripts do
• If your hidden variable's value needs to be dynamically populated based on user input elsewhere on the form then better to use client script
• If you want better User Experience , use client script as well.
