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.

Santosh,

Please correct me if i'm wrong i'm trying here to create an ACL for Change task table with required roles has change_manager.

In the required roles (embedded list) simply add your role (change_mananger)

Also, add the condition for your states. the two are "anded" together.

Initially i'm just trying to show the EDIT button to users with MPI Change Manager, Here is my ACL

but for some reason the EDIT button is still hidden for users with MPI CHANGE MANAGER role.

Should i use an if condition in the advance script?

[Chuck Tomasi]

FYI - Only use the Advanced condition if there is no other alternative.

You mentioned you reverted you changes, but the Edit button was not present, now you are trying to add more things on. I recommend backing out the changes until you get the Edit button back on the form and start building up conditions, ACLs, etc. from there.

I just reverted back the changes and trying with New ACL.
