If that group has a role associated to it and you want to limit this field to be visible by only them, then the most secure way is by ACL (which means you'd need to create a READ ACL for that table and that field, specifically) However...if you don't want to go that route, then you can do a UI Policy, with no conditions, and go to script section (set it to ALL UI type) and put this in the script area:

if (g_user.hasRole('change_manager')) {
g_form.setDisplay('u_field_name', true);
} else {
g_form.setDisplay('u_field_name', false);
}

You could also use an onLoad client script with the same script above.

Please mark reply as Helpful/Correct, if applicable. Thanks!

It's really quite messy to use a UI policy here I would recommend an onLoad client script or an ACL.

However if you simply must have a UI policy then you can create one with a condition that is always true

like number is not empty

reverse if false is off

run scripts true

Execute is true script

function onCondition() {
var hasRole = g_user.hasRole('change_manager');
if (hasRole ==true) {
g_form.setVisible('u_ram', true);
} else{
g_form.setVisible('u_ram', false);
}
}

I have tried this in a dev instance and it's fine but you are really better off using an ACL or client script
