And also add following conditional formatting to the "Switch to HR View" button.

“CurrentUser” is not equal to “HR” then hid ethis button.

Hi, Create one xml file with HR users list. For example <HRManagers> <HR>anuma</HR> <HR>Shive</HR></HRManagers> And add this xml file as xml data connection to the form.Add one hidden field “CurrentUser” to the schema and set default value as “userName()” function.Add one open Rule to the form.

Go to Toolsà Form Options.
Switch to “Open and Save” tab.
Select Rules and Click on Add button.
Click on set Condition.
Add condition as “CurrentUser” is equal to “HR”
Click on ok.
Click on Add Action button.
Select “Switch Views”.
Select “HR view” in the view dropdown.
Click on ok.

If your default view is HRview. Change above Condition to “CurrentUser” is not equal to “HR” and change Switch View to "Employee view ".

Hello,

You have to add the code to check current user belongs to which group. Based on that you have to switch view either employees view or HR view.

You have to add the conditional formatting for button in employees view.

The easiest way is to put a set of rules when your form is opening.
