Subgrid configuration question

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 385

Is it possible in a sub grid to not make every column clickable?  So for example I have a sub grid view that shows customer name, engagement name, and x...  I only want the "x" column to be clickable/linked... I don't want the customer field or engagement name to be?

Thanks,

Terry

    Hi Mattw112b,

    Ok. Get it. The most simple Idea is that you could move the third 'Title' item to the first column to make it more visible.

    If you really want to make the sample like column "Customer" or column "Engagement" unclickable. There's one little complex method.

    You could create two field like column "Customer2" or column "Engagement2" and set workflow which is applicable when entity record created and set value equal to "Customer" and "Engagement".

    For the already existing records, you could add the 2 new columns into the view and manually export them by excel template and copy the value from "Customer" and "Engagement" and re-import the data.

    Then you could get no-clickable field data like follow:

    Hope the above would help.

    It is just confusing for the end users.  They always click on the first column "Customer" or second column "Engagement" probably because click on first thing they see... instead of for example the "Title" of the item which actually links to the sub item third column.

    Hi Mattw112b,

    The link on customer name, engagement name is used to redirect to related entity records.

    If your using D365 Online, currently there's no OOB function to set some columns as unclickable.

    Since the sub grid view is also the related entity view which could only be configured with width or web resource function. Could you share more business background on this requirement or I could help provide some other alternative suggestions
