Standard Change Template Proposal - Request Approval UI Action

[Sam Ogden]

Hi All,

We are in the middle of configuring the standard change option in the platform.

Our change manager requires that all proposals have at least 1 task.  We were looking to amend the Request approval UI action to check that a change task template had been added to the proposal before requesting the approvals.  This is fine, however the 'Request Approval' button appears at the bottom of the 'Propose a new Standard Change Template' form:

We want to hide this from this part of the proposal so that users have to select the 'Save' button first and then the 'Request Approval' button only appears in the next UI:

I've seen that there is a UI action on the 'std_change_proposal' but I believe this is just the action on the second UI and not the button on the initial form before being saved.  Any help no if we can remove the button on the first form is greatly appreciated.

Thanks

Sam

The button is visible for both insert and update operation. You can uncheck the insert checkbox on the button to disable it during the initial step.

Hi IamKalai,

I had tried this, so I've unticked the 'show insert' option but the button is still showing at the bottom of the page.

The Ui action is on 'std_change_proposal' table, but the initial form I believe is a catalog item so I don't think this UI action is the same one?

Thanks

Sam

I misunderstood the question. Yes the button is on catalog that you are referring. I tried to find the source of it but I am unable to find it. 

I am not sure of an easier way but you can add a onload catalog client script script to the catalog and hide it.

jQuery("#submit_button_std_chg_approval").hide();

Thanks for the above. 

I've been struggling to find the source too, but the script above has worked a treat.

Thanks
