Hide Username and Password fields without creating new profiles
Hi,
I need some help regarding creating and hiding username and password fields on an account without creating new profiles.
Our solution already has >20 profiles and if I would create a new profile for each user that should have access to these new fields, I need to create at least 10 more.
I thought about hiding the username and password for all users except the sysadmin and then create a Formula field (text) which shows the information based on a checkbox in the userrecord.
IF( $User.Password_active__c = true, Password_c , ""), i.e. shows the content of the field "Password" if the checkbox is marked, otherwise it shows nothing.
Is there another way of doing this, and are there any security implications of this approach that I should know of?
Thanks,
Joakim

Find the release notes here.
Ahh, IdeaExchange comments:

appear to indicate that you need to request this feature to be turned on for your org. Still, its kind of odd that I can't find any mention of it in the current release notes...
