Where can I change the functionality of the "Post" button on Journal Entries?

[mattystern]

Hello,

Where can I find the script/function for the "post" button associated with "Additional Comments / Work Notes"? 

I want to be able to hide it on a custom table / build one with different functionality, but I cannot find where it lives...

Thanks in advance for your help.

Hi Matt,

Did you check property: glide.ui16.live_forms.enabled. Also, suggest you to follow link & look for its impacts. 

Thanks,

Hi Jaspal,

Thanks for the quick response! I see this is for enabling /disabling the feature as a whole, which is helpful information. Do you know of a way to this on a specific form or will this always be a global update?

As an example, instead of using the base system "Update" button on a custom table, I copied the UI action for "Update" into it's own UI Action so I did not have to edit the base system "Update" functionality. Am I able to achieve the same with the "Post" button here?

Yes, its generic. If you want to make it specific for form then you can use onLoad Client Script that uses dom manipulation as below.

function onLoad() {
	var removebutton=document.getElementsByClassName("btn btn-default pull-right activity-submit")[0];
removebutton.style.display="none";
}

Thanks,

Hi Jaspal,

This works for hiding the post button, thank you! Is there a way to edit its functionality as well?
