hi,

When I am cancelling purchase order I want to make it read only as shown in below image.

I donot want to fetch all the fields(Controls) one by one and make it as read only....I want to make a whole form as read only .As working in all othe existing entity like order...etc..

How can I achieve this using js?

Yes, It's possible

Use this:

function ReadOnly ()

{

var controls = Xrm.Page.ui.controls.get();

for (var i in controls)

{

var control = controls[i];

if (!control.getDisabled())

{

control.setDisabled(true);

}

}

}

Hi NikkiShah,

To do this, you'll need to change the Status of the record.

If you must use JavaScript, you can find the method above. I'd suggest you consider workflow if possible, specifically, real-time workflow. It'll be easier to implement and maintain.

Update the record status to be inactive that will do what you want.

Hi Rajkumar,

i tried above approach in crm 9.0 but got below error

TypeError: Object doesn't support property or method 'getDisabled'

Please advice if it is not supportable in crm 9.0. Also advice if you have any other approach.

Thanks.

If you have subgrid or iframe, you will get this error. Extra checks will avoid this.

var controls = Xrm.Page.ui.controls.get();

for (var i in controls) {

var control = controls[i];

if (control.getDisabled && control.setDisabled && !control.getDisabled()) {

control.setDisabled(true);

}

}

Hi NikkiShah,

It is better to set a form to read only by changing the records status then it is to use JavaScript.
