While dot-walking within client scripts does not work in some cases, this is a working example that I am currently using.

Hi Naresh,

you can write onload catalog client script with Applies to catalog task view

in that determine whether it is 1st or 2nd task based on Assignment Group of task or short description and make them read-only

Mark ✅ Correct if this solves your issue and also mark 👍 Helpful if you find my response worthy based on the impact.
Thanks

Hello Naresh,

Create a display business rule and include the logic to store the value as true in a scratchpad if this is a first catalog task. Now create a OnLoad Client Script to hide the variables only if the scratchpad value is set to true.
