You can secure a field on a form so that specific HR users cannot view it.
Before you begin
Role required: sn_hr_core.admin, security_admin
About this task
Use Access Control (ACL) on a field to secure it.
Note: This example shows how to secure the Ethnicity field on an HR Profile form so users with the HR Manager [hr_manager] role or below cannot view it.
Procedure
Navigate to All > HR Profile.
Elevate your role to add security_admin.
Select your login name and select Elevate Roles.
Select Elevate Roles from login name.
Check security_admin.
Select OK.

It can be any record.

Move a role that you want to view the field to the Selected column.
For example, move sn_hr_core.admin. By selecting read and adding sn_hr_core.admin, any role below this role, cannot read the field. For example, sn_hr_core.manager is below this role and cannot view this field after completing the steps.
Click OK.
Because HRSM is a scoped application, you have to ensure that you are in the scoped version within the form.
- Click the Settings
