SNOW-CSA UI, Navigation and Forms Practice Question
An administrator needs to provide a custom view for the Incident table that hides the 'Description' field and reorders fields for a specific group of users. The view should be accessible from the form context menu. Which approach should the administrator take?
⚠ Common exam trap
Watch out — candidates often confuse UI Policies (which can hide fields) with views (which control the entire form layout including field order and visibility), leading them to select option A despite UI Policies being unable to reorder fields.

Correct answer & explanation
✓
Create a new view for the Incident table and assign it to a user criteria that includes the group.
Creating a new view for the Incident table and assigning it to a user criteria that includes the group allows the administrator to define a custom form layout (hiding the 'Description' field and reordering fields) that is automatically applied to all members of that group. Views are the native mechanism in ServiceNow for providing different form configurations to different users based on user criteria, and they are accessible from the form context menu via the 'View' option.

Create a UI Policy that hides the 'Description' field and reorders fields for the specific group.
Why it's wrong here
UI Policies apply to all users, not specific groups.

Use the 'Personalize Form' option to rearrange fields and share the view with the group.
Why it's wrong here
Personalized forms are user-specific and not shareable.

Why this is correct
Views can be scoped to user criteria.
