Hello,

I have a situation where I need approval for all Task and I have used custom Task entity where I have created 25 fields

I want if Approval equals to 'yes' then lock 10 fields in between this 25 field

I know it's possible in Business Rules but I need JavaScript for this

Please response on my requirement ASAP

Hi Sakib

If you want the user to not be able to access the fields, rather than locking them you could just set them to be invisible. You can do this with both Business Rules and JavaScript.

Another answer here gives a good idea of how to do this with JavaScript with the setDisabled() function.

A possible solution looks SOMETHING like this; note that I haven't tested it:

aprv = formContext.getAttribute("approval").getValue();

if(aprv == true){

disable_fields = ["field1","field2",....]

disable_fields.forEach(x => {

formContext.getControl(x).setDisabled(true)

});

}

Hi Sakib,

You need to pass formcontext to above function as below

function disableFormFields(formContext) {
//Your code
}

and make sure, you are passing execution context as first parameter in the function call.

Hi,

Parameter passed should be as below and add below line of code in your javascript to fix error.

function disableFormFields(executionContext)

{

var formContext= executionContext.getFormContext();

aprv =formContext.getAttribute("new_approval").getValue();

if(aprv == true){

disable_fields = ["new_assign","subject"]

disable_fields.forEach(x => {

formContext.getControl(x).setDisabled(true)

});

}

}

Hi,

You should prefix 'header_process_field schema name'.

Check below article.
