Posted on by 95

Hi all,

Is the any way to make a Calculate field that user can enter value (ex: 0) manually or change field type from calculated to simple field so that user can enter manually ?

Currently calculate field is lock and  field type is disable, I cannot change field type.

Thanks,

Chau

    Unfortunately you cannot change field type or editable. What you can do you can change the logic of your calculated field and set the value accordingly.

    Hi,

    It seems that you are trying to change the field type from Calculated field to simple field in dynamic CRM.

    Calculated Fields are by default locked on form. Hence, we can't enter value manually and cannot change field type of field once the field is created.

    So, there is no another way to make a Calculated field that user can't enter value manually or change its datatype.

    For a workaround,

    You can create Decimal and Two Options fields.

    Write a plugin to implement calculate logic to set value in Decimal field.

    In Plugin logic, you can check the Two Options field value to check whether Allow Calculate or not.

    i.e.

    • if Allow Calculate: Yes, then set Decimal field value
    • if Allow Calculate: No, allow user to manually enter value.

     

    Hope this helps.

    Thanks!
