List Control

[sunny13]

Hi All,

I'm trying to hide "Edit" in the change task related list by using advance script in list control   for people without change_manager role and also there is an OR condition with respect to state.

Please review my code,

var answer;

if(gs.hasRole == "change_manager" ) ||   (parent.state=='3' || parent.state=='4' || parent.state=='-2' || parent.state=='-13' || parent.state=='-14' || parent.state=='2' || !parent.active;)

{

  answer=false;

}

else{

  answer=true;

}

But what happens is the EDIT button is not visible to anyone with any role except ADMIN i even revoked all changes but the EDIT button is missing from the related list.

But NEW button is visible to Users

Can someone help me debug this issue.

Hi Sanjin,

I would consider using a CREATE ACL on the related list records.

Just a quick question... why are you trying to use an Edit button the change_task related list? Edit is used to manage many-to-many relationships. Change tasks are typically assigned to one parent change. I wouldn't think this is a case where the same change task can be applied to multiple changes.

Hi Chuck,

Yes , The customer is looking for this feature to map a Change task from one CR to another CR , i don't think they will map a change task to multiple CR's.

it is a business requirement.

Let me try by creating a ACL.

Thank you for the clarification Sanjin. If you have an Edit button, someone is going to get confused. I recommend they change the value of the "Change request" reference field on the change task to point to the correct parent record instead. This eliminates the possibility of confusion.

Chuck,

I understand thanks i will let parent field in the ctask editable for change_managers so that they can make the appropriate change.
