Hi Sourav,
Here you go. The below procedure works for me
1. Create a custom checkbox on your form(for me its flag)
2. Write the below code on the locked out UI action
function hello()
{
document.getElementById("159c99bb4f303200b5d50ab18110c747").disabled = true;
var ga = new GlideAjax("hello");
ga.addParam("sysparm_name","hello2");
ga.addParam("sysparm_parent",g_form.getValue('number'));
ga.getXML(test2);
function test2(response){
var answer = response.responseXML.documentElement.getAttribute("answer");
}
}
3. And the script include
var hello = Class.create();
hello.prototype = Object.extendsObject(AbstractAjaxProcessor, {
hello2: function() {
var groupID=this.getParameter('sysparm_parent');
gs.log('testing1'+groupID);
var gr=new GlideRecord("incident");
gr.addQuery('number',groupID);
gr.query();
if(gr.next())
{
gr.u_flag='true';
gr.update();
}
},
type: 'hello'
});
4. To control the reloading issue, write the below onload client script
function onLoad() {
//Type appropriate comment here, and begin script below
if(g_form.getValue('u_flag')=='true')
{
document.getElementById("159c99bb4f303200b5d50ab18110c747").disabled = true;
}
}
Please note: I haven't used the try/catch statements, but you need to use it in your code while playing with DOM.
Also you need to hide the flag button from the form through UI policy or ACL(dont remove it from form layout or else it will not work).
