Remove ability to insert new row on condition

[xiaix]

When the "Status" is submitted, I need to take away the ability to "Insert new row..." on a related list:

The only time a user should be able to insert a new row would be if the status is NOT submitted.

I tried doing it by manipulating the DOM:

function onLoad() {
     document.onreadystatechange = function()   {
             if (document.readyState === 'complete')
             {
                     if (g_form.getValue('u_status') == 'Submitted')
                     {
                             var e = document.getElementsByClassName('list_unsaved list_row list_add');
                             setTimeout(function(){ e[0].parentNode.removeChild(e[0]); }, 1000);
                             if (e.length)
                                     e[0].parentNode.removeChild(e[0]);
                     }
             }
     };
}

Which worked, but 2 issues:     1) It's a bad way of doing it, and 2) if a user clicks a header of the related list to sort, then the "Insert a new row..." re-appears.

Hi David

Quick question. Is there a specific reason to have the list on the form and not as related list ?

I mean using a related list you can simply set up a condition on parent and remove the button in case the parent.state has that specific state.

First, it is a related list.   Second, there is no button to remove.

I was thinking an ACL would be the way to go, but it would affect the entire table

Other wise you can simply right click on the list and check for the list control form.

Right click on the form to check the hidden fields.

Anyway you will be able to see something like this...

Than field should solve your issue

This is my list control:

I don't have an Omit insert row condition option like you do.
