# Breaking: #96996 - Hook "checkEnableFields" removed {#breaking-96996}

See [forge#96996](https://forge.typo3.org/issues/96996)

## Description {#description}

The previous TYPO3 Hook "hook_checkEnableFields" registered via
`$GLOBALS['TYPO3_CONF_VARS']['SC_OPTIONS']['tslib/class.tslib_fe.php']['hook_checkEnableFields']`
has been removed in favor of a new PSR-14 event
`\TYPO3\CMS\Core\Domain\Access\RecordAccessGrantedEvent`.

## Impact {#impact}

Hooks in third-party extensions will not be executed anymore.

## Affected Installations {#affected-installations}

TYPO3 installations with custom extensions using this hook. The
extension scanner will notify about usages.

## Migration {#migration}

Register a new PSR-14 event listener for [RecordAccessGrantedEvent](https://docs.typo3.org/permalink/changelog:feature-96996-1663513388)
in the extension's `Services.yaml` to keep TYPO3 v12+ compatibility.

Extensions can then provide compatibility with TYPO3 v11 and TYPO3 v12 at
the same time.
