Making a field read only for user with role using UI policy

[amacqueen]

I'm trying to make a field read only for a user with a specific role.

In the script associated with the UI Policy I have

function onCondition() {

gs.hasRole(x_9004_invoice_que.mgr);

}

We only have one user with this role however it is making the field read only for all users

Appreciate any assistance with this

HI Angus,

You can achive this fucntinality using 3 ways

1) ACL - Highly recommended

2) Client script

3) Ui policy

1) ACL:

Check the below link

restricting access to certain fields on a form

2) Client script

function onLoad() {

  var isXYZUser = g_user.hasRole('x_9004_invoice_que.mgr)');

  if (isXYZUser){

          g_form.setReadonly('request_date',true);

          //Similarly make all the required fields read only

  }

}

function onCellEdit() {

Implement the above kind of logic here to handle the list view locking

}

UI Plocliy

In 'Execute if true'-

var isAdmin = g_user.hasRole('x_9004_invoice_que.mgr');

if(isAdmin)

{

g_form.setReadOnly('fields1', true);

}

In 'Execute if false'-

g_form.setReadOnly('fields1', false);
