Use Read-Only grid among Editable Grid enabled entities in D365

When you enable Editable Grid for an entity, all the public views become Editable Grids, correct?

And if you wonder if you can keep certain grids as Read-Only and the rest as Editable, your assumption is correct. Here’s what this blog is about.

You can still go back and select a particular grid which you want to keep as a classic Read-Only grid

1. Let’s say you have added the Editable Grid under Controls. This will apply Editable Grids for all the Views on that entity.
   
2. And you want Vendors view, for example, to show the classic Read-Only grid, open it up.
   
3. Select Custom Controls.
   
4. And force-add another Read only grid even if it says the Default one is already selected.
   
5. Save and Publish you changed and check
   
6. And the rest of the grids will continue to be Editable Grids
   

Note: I tried this on the Unified Interface and this works. Somehow, it didn’t work on the Classic Web UI.

Hope this helps!
