How to hide a choice option from list edit,where a business rule is not working

[Ramakanth Kandr]

I am able to hide a choice option on the form using a client script,but not on list edit.
A business rule is not working in this scenario.

This can be done by client script...I dont understand why it is not.

Can you post your script as well..

BR,

Smitha.

Thanks for the responses,but its pretty simple if we use a onCellEdit client script using saveAndClose as a callback function

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

  var saveAndClose = true;

  //alert('testfirst');

  if (newValue == '1')

  {

  alert('Cannot move back to Open state');

  saveAndClose = false;

  }

callback(saveAndClose);

}

Mark the answer as correct if its helpful

HI Ramakanth,

You can write list_edit ACL on that field so that user should not be able to edit through list layout or else make it depended field & define your choice list accordingly.If you make it depended field at dictionary level itself, then there is no need of add/remove option statements in your client script. It will take care of both form & list.

Thanks
