Prevent Navigation to form for Lookup

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by Community Member

I have several lookups on a form. The customer needs to select from those but if they click it navigates to the form for that particular lookup. How can I prevent that navigation from occurring. Should I be able to do that in javascript? I can not seem to address the div or span tags via jquery and turn off the click event? Is this the correct approach?

    Again, please don't assume we all know what you are referring to. You need to provide screenshots.

    If for example, you want to allow access to the Customer Lookup, but not the ability to drill down to Customer Maintenance with the Open button, use the application security to deny access to the Customer Maintenance window.  You can either work with the Security Tasks and Roles, or use GP Power Tools' Deny Based Security.

    If you want to hide the Open button, use Modifier or GP Power Tools' Trigger Setup to hide the button.

    Also don't even attempt to use javascript or anything else to manipulate the HMTL for the web client.  Make the changes at the application and they will be reflected in the web client.

    SMKOLL,

    Dynamics GP has two versions of client:

    • HTML5 client, where the application is hosted in a browser
    • Windows application client (a windows application)

    The Windows application has some "webpage" looking aspects to it and the navigation within it, so I think you are unintentionally confusing us as to which one you are talking about. Screenshots help clarify....

    Tim.

    That does not look like Dynamics GP.

    Are you sure it is?

    We've been duped! That's not GP
