Ok. I don't think there is any OOB method available for hiding that filter. I achieved this by using DOM, Please write a UI Script as mentioned below:

Scenario:

For example on the Change form we have the Problem Related List, so I am hiding the filter on the Problem Related List only present on the Change form for all the Users except the Admins.

Script:

try {

  var loc = window.location.href;

  if((loc.indexOf('sys_target=problem')>0) && loc.indexOf('sysparm_collection=change_request')>0)   //this would only hide for Problem & Change combo

  {

  setTimeout(setMyFilter, 1000);

  function setMyFilter()

  {

  if(!g_user.hasRole('admin'))                                 //This will allow to hide for all except Admins

  {

  document.getElementsByClassName('col-sm-offset-2 col-sm-8 m2m_filter_container')[0].style.display='none';

  }

  }

  }

}

catch (e) {

}

Make Sure "Global" checkbox on the UI Script form is marked as True as highlighted above.

Result:

Hi Shloke,

can u plz make me explain what does these lines actually do ?? How does this line hides the filter

document.getElementsByClassName('col-sm-offset-2 col-sm-8 m2m_filter_container')[0].style.display='none';

Hi,

Basically, this is a DOM Method by which we are retrieving all the Elements for the particular Class mentioned in the bracket (col-sm-offset-2 col-sm-8 m2m_filter_container) of the filter which is getting displayed above the slush bucket after click on the Edit button and style.display='none' is a CSS property to hide those elements.

Please refer the link below for more Details on DOM for ClassName method:
