Fields are not visible while creating or editing records, even though they are present on the page layout assigned correctly

This article explains how to resolve the conflict that happens when both the Record Detail component and Dynamic Forms Field Sections exist on the same Lightning record page, causing fields on create, edit, or clone screens to differ from the assigned page layout.

Why This Happens

When users create, edit, or clone a record, the fields shown come from the Field Sections on the page — not from the Record Detail component. This is expected behavior (working as designed). See other considerations in Dynamic Forms Tips and Considerations.

How to Resolve Missing Fields

Choose between using the Record Detail component or Field Sections — not both — on the Lightning record page:

• To render fields from the Record Detail component, remove all Field Section components from the page.
• To render fields from the Field Section components (Dynamic Forms), remove the Record Detail component and make sure the necessary fields are added to the Field Sections.
  
  

Additional Considerations

A difference in field visibility can also be caused by Visibility Rules added to the Fields or Field Sections component in App Builder. Check these rules if fields are still missing after resolving the Record Detail / Field Sections conflict.
