Reference Info Icon Missing

[vishal065]

Hi,

I have made a reference field Read-only on the RITM and Catalog Task levels.

Though the 'Info icon' is available for Admin but not available for non-admin users.

I have user Catalog UI Policy to make the variable read-only on RITM & Task level.

Is there a way to make this icon visible for admins also ?

Regards

Vishal

Hi Vishal,

Have you used any read or write roles for these variables?

The reference icon wont be displayed for non admin users if the variables have these roles added in it.

Thanks

Hi Alikutty,

No read role. But write role is defined there as 'admin'. And why does the roles on variable is blocking the ref icon? Isn't it just mean for the visibility of variable ?

Hi Vishal,

You should remove the write role for admin and implement the same functionality using a UI policy or client script. This is a known issue with write roles and reference icon remains hidden for non-admin user if we are using it on reference variables.

There is HI PRB655957 opened against the issue. If you need to allow writing for admin on the variables, then you can add the condition g_user.hasRole('admin') and allow them to edit.

Thanks Alikutty.

Removing the write role from variable works well.
