Hi,



I would rather suggest to use a UI policy for making fields readonly


For making readonly through client script you can use this g_form.setReadOnly()



GlideForm (g form) - ServiceNow Wiki

Hi Kishore,



Can you explain the use case for this requirement ?


By the time you will make the fields read only the user would have already updated the fields.

g_form.setReadOnly('fieldname',true); // set read only


g_form.setReadOnly('fieldname',false); // unset read only field

Why would you want to make read only after submit? Whats the use case? I would prefer ACL in this case
