PeopleSoft - Hide the Home Button in Fluid-Mode Components



  • The following is applicable only for PeopleTools 8.55 and after.
  • Launch App Designer in All the Environments  like PIH, HRMS, FSCM & etc
  • Open PT_HEADERPAGE page  (Note: Make a backup of this page: “PT_HEADERPAGE_BKUP”)
  • Change the PT_WORK.PT_BUTTON_HOME field (a Push Button) into an Edit Box. To do this, you'd have to delete the existing Push Button, and insert an Edit Box into the same place.

  • Confirm the new Edit Box is pointing to the same PT_WORK.PT_BUTTON_ HOME Record Field
  • Go to the "Use" tab of the Edit Box's properties screen, and mark it as "Invisible"
  • Save
