Hi Sandeep,

onCellEdit is a function that is used in the case of a list. If you want to write some script that should be executed on a list then you can do that by using onCellEdit function.

In my previous example:

It is checking in one field whether it is having the same old value or new value and if success then returns a success using the callback function.

Another small example for you:

The script below runs on the State field and prevents users from changing the State to closed in a list. Hope this helps.

function onCellEdit(sysIDs, table, oldValues, newValue, callback) {

var saveAndClose = true;

if(newValue == 7){

alert('Not allowed');

saveAndClose = false;

} else {

saveAndClose = true;

}

callback(saveAndClose);

}
