Switch to modal UI - impact on UDF / Business rules

[SAPSupport]

Dear support,

With 2305 version coming, switch to modal UI will be automatic.
As we are using UDF fields I was wondering :
- I understood that we would need to re enter screen configuration to readjust fields. Though would the switch to modal UI have an impact on "data" or will it be kept ?
- I think we had a previous feedbacks about some UDF fields that couldnt be updated to modal UI. Do we have a way to list those ?
- With readjustments of those fields, do we have to also updates potential business rules / validation rules / display rules ... that would use those UDFs as a reference ?

I understood that we would need to re enter screen configuration to readjust fields. Though would the switch to modal UI have an impact on “data” or will it be kept ? : No impact on data. Since Modal UI uses different screen, customers need to adjust it accordingly. Refer to documentation here https://help.sap.com/docs/SAP_FIELD_SERVICE_MANAGEMENT/fsm_plan_dispatch/moving-custom-fields-modal-...
- I think we had a previous feedbacks about some UDF fields that couldn’t be updated to modal UI. Do we have a way to list those ?: UDF of type selection list (Multi-select) is currently not supported. But we will address this soon, before 2305 release
- With readjustments of those fields, do we have to also updates potential business rules / validation rules / display rules ... that would use those UDFs as a reference ?: We would advise to validate the business rules flow using Modal UI. Also validation rules and display rules needs to be moved to Modal UI related screen configuration (edited)
