APPLICATION - PRODUCT ENGINEERING - Restrict Edit on fields

aravinth_r - Monday, March 5, 2012 5:11 AM:

Hello,

When we create a Part, user is allowed to choose the type. User chooses the type and enters other information and saves the part. Part gets created in the system.

My requirement is that after the part creation, user should not be able to edit the type of part. What is the easiest way to achieve this?

Regards, Aravinth

Hi Aravinth,

Use below method and set it at "onFormPopulated" event of PART.

=============================

var item = document.thisItem;
if(item && !top.aras.isTempEx(item))
{
    var innovator = item.newInnovator();
    var itmPart = innovator.newItem("Part","get");
    itmPart.setID(item.getProperty("id"));
    itmPart = itmPart.apply();
    if(itmPart.getLockStatus() == 1)
    {
        var clsFld = document.getElementsByName("classification");
        if(clsFld)
        {
          clsFld(0).disabled = "disabled";
        }
    }
}

==================================================

Thanks Vishal. Also, wanted to tell you I implemented the same in a different logic. I checked whether the revision field (major_rev) had value or not. If it had, i disabled the field. Else enabled it.

Regards, Aravinth

var thisItem = document.thisItem;
var vClassificiationField = document.getElementById("classification");
var vRevision = document.getElementById("major_rev");
var revision = vRevision.value;
if(revision != "") {
  vClassificiationField.disabled = true;
} else {
  vClassificiationField.disabled = false;
}
