Step 5: Create a flag for leadership user
In this step, we will create a rule to identify if the logged in user is from Leadership. Let us name the rule “Confirm Leadership user”. All the steps are the same as Step 2, except the fields changes to “isCurrentUserLeader” and one of the filter conditions form Permission Level changes to “Leadership. The changes are reflected in the screenshots below –
Step 6: Hide the HR section for non-HR users
In the section for HR, add a formatting rule named “Enable HR view”. In the condition, select isCurrentUserHR and set the condition as “is blank”. After these changes are made, check the setting “Hide this control”
Step 7: Hide the Leadership section for non-Leadership user
Similar to Step 4 above, add a formatting rule named “Enable Leadership view”. In the condition, select isCurrentUserLeader and set the condition as “is blank”. After these changes are made, check the setting “Hide this control”
With this, all the steps are completed. Publish the form now. Time for testing it out!!
Step 8: Usage and Testing
Now, if you do not have any entry in the Permission Configuration list, both the sections will be hidden from you.
If your entry is added as “HR”, you will be able to see the HR section –

Finally, if two entries are added against your name for both HR and Leadership, you will be able to view both the sections
