Need help to find the UI Policy that shows a field on a form

I see a UI Policy that hides "Pdf_template" on HR Case table.

But on one of the child table HR Total Rewards, the field "Pdf_template" is visible.

I need to  find which UI Policy or client script shows this field on the form

 

I tried to search UI actions, where the field_ name is "pdf_template" - unfortunately there is no other UI actions for this field

 

I tried to search client script, where contains "pdf_template" - unfortunately no client scripts related to this.

 

Im confused what else could set the visibility on the form?

Hi @Sruthi17 ,

I see OOB it's hidden on the HR Total rewards case table

so it must be custom in you instance

 

1. is Pdf_template field a mandatory field on the HR Total rewards case? if yes it will show up regardless of the UI policies

 

2. check if there is any other UI policy or Client Script on the HR Total Rewards table which might be making the field visible or making it mandatory 

 

client script you can check by script contains pdf_template

 

check if there are any UI policies with script or something which you might have missed

 

 

check it the OOB UI policy is modified

Hi CHaitanya,

 

Yes I checked all these earlier and still cannot find the cause

 

I have checked

1. All UI Actions, where field equals "pdf_template". Result: only one UI Action to hide

2. All client scripts, that contains "pdf_template". Result: No related script that updates pdf_template

3. UI Policy script that contains "pdf_template. Result: No UI Policy found

4. I've checked "pdf_template" is not mandatory in "HR Total Rewards" table
