Bug Previewing Form With Field Rules to Disable/Enable a Date/Time Field

asked on November 4

I think I found a bug with Field Rules when Previewing a Form.  Specifically, it appears the field rules to enable/disable a date/time field don't appear to be working when I Preview the form.  They do work as expected when I run the form in Test Mode, so I think this is just a bug with the Preview functionality.

I'm on Version 12.0.2503.10378 and using the Layout Designer.

I have a Field Rule that is enabling three fields (two number fields and one date/time field).

When I preview the form, I can see all three fields are disabled when I have not selected the task from the drop-down.  But when I do select a task, the number fields work as expected but the date/time field does not.

Here's my Field Rules:

And here is how the fields look in the Preview:

When no task is selected, they are all disabled:

When I select the task where they should all be enabled, they are enabled:

But when I select a different task where they should not be enabled, only the two number fields are disabled, while the date/time field remains editable.

I tested both Enable and Disable options and both Steps and Stages and saw the same behavior.

We fixed an issue that should be out in the Fall25 release. The bug was specifically about using stage in field rules. So your issue is likely not the datetime field but the stage itself. If you flip it to step you should be able to get it to work for the time being.

I haven't had a chance to try the Fall25 release yet.  But I did confirm that this behavior was happening with both the Field Rule set by Stage and the Field Rule set by Step.

Unfortunately I can only test the latest, but please let me know if you still have problems

It's not a big issue, since it's only in the Preview and not in the running form.  But I will try to test this after the Fall25 upgrade (which I'm hoping to get installed in the next couple weeks).
