Hi at all,
I have decided to write this topic because i don’t find any discussion about this and i want to share what i discovered and other persons don’t waste time to understand this functionality.
First of all, I don’t if is a bug or not, but i don’t find an explication on the documentations.
I am talking about the fields of Identity Create and Update Forms.
The functionality(or bug) is the follow:
When you create those forms you need build the Create form with the same fields of the Update form, because SP put all the fields of the Update form into Create forms.
So, if you have one filed the Update that are not present in the Create, it appears.
The homemade solution is create the same field, but hidden.
An example:
With those form:
Create
Update
with Inactive field only the update, it appears in Create too when you open the Form from UI.
Finally, you need create an hidden field on Create Form for hide this field.
The opposite does not happen, the fields present in the Create and absent in the Update do not appear on the Edit Identity page:
I hope it is useful to you
Best regards
