Hi,

Is it possible to make every field editable in editable grid? for example I have created a custom field and on the editable grid it shows as locked.

    Hi John,
     
    This can be done with Javascript. 
    In your js file , copy this function :
     
    function lockUnlockFields(executionContext,fieldName,lockunlock) {
          var formContext = executionContext.getFormContext();
              let objEntity = formContext.data.entity;
              objEntity.attributes.forEach(function (attribute, i) {
                     if (attribute.getName() == fieldName) {
                        let attributeToDisable = attribute.controls.get(0);
                        attributeToDisable.setDisabled(lockunlock);
                     }
              });
    }
    Then, create a function to unlock a list of fields of your choice , for example :
     
    function unlockMyFields(executionContext)
    {
        var formContext = executionContext.getFormContext();
        
        var fieldNames = ['unit','discountpercentage'];//put here the logical names of the fields to unlock
        for(i=0;i < fieldNames.length;i++)
        {
            lockUnlockFields(executionContext,fieldNames[i],false);
        }
    }
    Now, you have to qo to the opportunity form , select the subgrid of the products and in the events tab , choose the event 'OnRecordSelect'  and put your function there (unlockMyFields).

    Hi John,
    Because it's by-design, it's impossible to change it.
    Perhaps you could add another editable sub-grid yourself, rather than using the OOB sub-grid, , then you can edit columns in the new subgrid:

    My question is not about the design, but if its possible to make them not restricted somehow?

    Hi Partner,
    Yes, this is by-design.
    There are certain restrictions on inline editing based on the type of products in the subgrid:
    - If the product in the subgrid is an individual product and an existing product from the product catalog, all fields except the Quantity and Discount are locked for editing.
    - If the product in the subgrid is an individual product and a write-in product from the product catalog, all fields except the Product Name, Quantity, and Discount are locked for editing.
    - If the product in the subgrid is a product bundle or an optional product of a bundle, all fields except Quantity and Discount are locked for editing.
    - If the product in the subgrid is a required product from an existing product bundle, all fields in the subgrid view are locked for editing.
