setVisibility() not working for Subform Fields with Client Script

setVisibility() not working for Subform Fields with Client Script

I am currently working on a Zoho CRM Client Script involving a subform and encountered a limitation that hinders my ability to fully control the visibility of specific fields within subform rows. The setVisibility() method, which works perfectly fine for regular fields, does not seem to function when applied to subform fields. Is there a solution for this?

Use Case:
In my scenario, I have a subform with fields such as "New_Material" (Boolean) and "Quarry_Pit_Name" (Lookup). I need to hide the "Quarry_Pit_Name" field whenever "New_Material" is set to true. However, it appears that Zoho CRM’s setVisibility() does not support field-level visibility controls within subform rows. As a result, I’m unable to dynamically hide or show subform fields using client scripts, which is a common requirement for creating intuitive user experiences.



Info
Moderation Update:
The setVisibility() method for the subform fields is yet to be opened for all the accounts. You can write to our support team (support[at]zohocrm[dot]com) requesting to enable it for your account. Thank you.
