Incident form read-only when the state is 'In Progress', and ensure they become editable again when

[Gajendra singh]

I make all fields on the Incident form read-only when the state is 'In Progress', and ensure they become editable again when the state changes to something else?  I have tried this onChange script but it's working for when state is in progress. but revert to different then it not make it editable the field.

if (newValue == '2') {

        var fields = g_form.getEditableFields();

        for (var i = 0; i < fields.length; i++) {

            if (fields[i] !== 'state') {

                g_form.setReadOnly(fields[i], true);

            } else {

                g_form.setReadOnly(fields[i], false);

            }

        }

    } else {

var formElements = g_form.getFormElement().elements;

        for (var i = 0; i < formElements.length; i++) {

            var fieldName = formElements[i].name;

            g_form.setReadOnly(fieldName, false);

        }

}

@Gajendra singh Try below onchange script on incident table for state field.

getEditableFields() only returns fields that are currently editable. When fields are already read-only, they won't be in the list, so your loop can't make them editable again.

function onChange(control, oldValue, newValue, isLoading) {
    if (isLoading) return;
    toggleFields();
}

function toggleFields() {
    var state = g_form.getValue('state');
    var makeReadOnly = (state == '2');
    // Get ALL fields on the form, not just editable ones
    var allFields = g_form.elements;
    for (var i = 0; i < allFields.length; i++) {
        var fieldName = allFields[i].fieldName; 
        // Skip the state field itself
        if (fieldName != 'state') {
            g_form.setReadOnly(fieldName, makeReadOnly);
        }
    }
    // Ensure state field is always editable
    g_form.setReadOnly('state', false);
}
