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 ,

Maintain the same roles as field level ACL and create a new field level ACL & then update the condition as below

field_name IS NOT Approved

Hi @sd2097 ,

Why don't you try onload client script to check field value is approved & current logged in user has the role to make other fields readonly on record.

Please check and Mark Helpful and Correct if it really helps you.

Hi @Community Alums ,

Thanks for your response. Actually using client script will only work on the form. We want it to work for list as well. So that's the reason I am not going the client script way.
