Mandatory and read only fields after save

Hey all,

 

I now have a requirement to lock fields, make them mandatory and unlock depending on states and wondered what the best/quickest approach would be below is the flow and what locks/mandatorys are needed

 

 

When the phase is in definition nothing is mandatory. this is a draft phase and at this point the user can save, request 4 eyes check and delete the record. Once 4 eyes is requested all fields are locked down other than the one for the name of the 4 eyes checker and if its approved or not. Once approved fields are no longer locked and the majority of them become mandatory. I had thoght a simple UI policy would be fine but that makes fields mandatory as soon as the 4 eyes approves. They should only be mandatory once the change is saved as it will be someone else populating those fields. With the different locks,unlocks and mandatory s I wondered how others have done it. My initial thought was a hidden check box that ticks once 4 eyes is done I then base my UI policy on that tick box.

 

 

Any thoughts?

Hi Steve,



I also agree with Hari. If your client script is working properly then go with that.



Thanks and Regards,
