Make fields read only based on condition

[sd2097]

Hi all,

I have a requirement where I want to make fields read only when the value of a field is set to 'Approved'. I have two write acls on that table for that role- one table level and one field level. How do I make the record read only for that role by manipulating the acl.

I also tried a script :

if(condition){

answer = false;

}

But this is making all the records read only irrespective of the conditions.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,

Hi @sd2097 ,

Check for ACL which is table_name.field_name and operation is write and in the condition section you can specify the feild is 'Approved'.

Hi @Mr_X ,

Thanks for your reply. Actually there aren't any table_name.field_name acl for those fields.

Hi @sd2097 ,

Then create one as follows
Type: record

Operation: write

Name: table_name--->field_name

condition: field_name is Approved

Hi,

Actually I want the data to be read only if the field value is approved. Not the other way around. Can we do 'is not approved' instead?

Also, what should I give in the roles section? The same role that I gave in the previous acls?
