Making a field as read-only using Forms Personalization.

Hi All,
I have one requirement.I developed one form which is used to display Customer related Information.Some fields are created under one block and "reason-for-write off amount" field is created under another block.I have created Master-Detail relation for these 2 blocks.If there is any "reason-for-write off amount" is present for queried customers then it shows the "reason-for-write off amount" data.check boxes also created beside customer number field in Master block.If there is no "reason-for-write off amount" for any customer I need to write it and when I click on "submit" button in my form it goes to database.
Now my requirement is :
I need to make "reason-for-write off amount" field as read-only and I need to CHECK corresponding Customer "check_box" and make "SUBMIT" button as disable using personalization.
I wrote code in Personalization as
Trigger-Event:WHEN-NEW-FORM-INSTANCE
Condition: :DUMCUST.REASON_FOR_WRITEOFF IS NOT NULL
Processing mode:BOTH
Actions:
object type: ITEM
Target Object: :DUMCUST.REASON_FOR_WRITEOFF
Property Name: Enterable
Value:false
object type: ITEM
Target Object:      :XXMCS_CUSTOMER_DETAILS.CUSTOMER_NUMBER_CBX
Property Name: Value
Value:1
object type: ITEM
Target Object:      :XXMCS_CUSTOMER_DETAILS.SUBMIT
Property Name: Enabled
Value:False
But it is not working..the applied changes are not affected in my form.I tried the above actions with WHEN_NEW_BLOCK_INSTANCE trigger also.I didn't write any validation triggers for these items in my FMB also.
Could anyone please help me..
Thanks in Advance.

in your iterator declare the inputfield with disabled = true .
p_replacement_bee = cl_htmlb_inputfield=>factory(
                            id        = p_cell_id
                            disabled = 'true'
                            value     = comments ).
this will generate the html like below
<input type="Text"
class="urEdf2TxtEnbl urEdf2TxtRo urV" autocomplete="off" id="TAB1_1_4" ct="InputField" name="TAB1_1_4" st="r" tp="STRING"
readonly value="some value" onblur="sapUrMapi_InputField_Blur('TAB1_1_4',event)"
onkeydown="sapUrMapi_InputField_keydown('TAB1_1_4',event)"
onkeyup="sapUrMapi_InputField_KeyUp('TAB1_1_4',event)" onfocus="sapUrMapi_InputField_focus('TAB1_1_4',event)">
now you can use js getElementById as this now has a id attached (TAB1_1_4)

How to make fields read only after form is filled in

I am creating forms to be used within our company. The customer srv representative (CSR) would fill in the form and send it to the customer for signature and initial. There are a few issues I can't solve.
1) I need to make the rate & services fields read only after the CSR initials the form

Will the CSR have Acrobat or just Reader, and what type of computer will the CSR be using (Windows/Mac/mobile OS)? If just Reader (Wind/Mac), this is possible by setting the fields to read-only with JavaScript. The problem is this can't be considered secure, even if using a password as discussed here: Password-protect and hide one form field
With Acrobat you have the ability to flatten certain fields, which makes it a bit more difficult to change the "fields".

Make Absence DFF read only.

Hi,
I want to make the additional absence details DFF read only. Using set_item_property, I can use,enabled but which is hiding the DFF altogether. I just want to make it greyed out so that users can see but can't enter anything. I tried different properties without any results. I also tried fnd_descr.update_definition() without any results. How to achieve this?

OA Framework,how to make field Read-Only which is used inside Switch case

Hi all,
Using Personalization in OA Framework, when I am trying to make field read only, which is inside Swich statement ,then that field get automatically hidden.but my purpose is to make that field read-only not hide.
My field name is Proposed Annual Increase Amount .
The Personalization swtich case lookslike this :-
Field Name Shown
Switcher: Proposed Annual Increase Amount Yes
case_name_HrPRateAnnTotInputSs
Message Text Input: New Annual Amount Yes
case_name_HrPRateAnnInputSs
Message Text Input: Annual Pay Rate Yes
case_name_HrPRateCurrAnnSalSs
Message Styled Text: Pay Rate
Regards,
Mxj2930

Can you be a bit clear on your requirement. If you have a switcher to display a field based on some condition, the other fields will not get displayed. I did not get as to what you mean by "my purpose is to make that field read-only not hide.".
Are you talking about the case, when the "New Annual Amount" (or) "Annual Pay Rate" fields are displayed conditionally, you want them to be read-only and not editable. If this is the case, set the read-only property of these fields to true.

DFF Read-Only

Hi,
Is it possible to make just one of the DFF Attributes as READ-ONLY?
I'm able to make entire DFF read-only by using "Logical Apps - Apps Rules" Changing Securiy >DFF to No Update. Wondering If I can make just ONE segment read only instead of whole DFF.
Thanks much in Advance.
Sandy

This looks like an Apps related question to me and as such should be asked in this forum: OA Framework
If I am not correct in my assumption: what is DFF?

Make field read only untill value within pciklist is choosen

Hello,
I am trying to establish if it is possible to make a field read-only until a value within a pick list is chosen. Basically we have a pick list called structure and if the field value called "Aligned" is selected then I want the text field called Aligned Name to be available for import all other times this field should not be available.
Has anyone done anything similar? I'm guessing that this could only be achieved through WF but I haven't been able to find any code to make fields read only.

For those of you unable to download the document from MetaLink3 here it is:
As an example to illustrate this requirement, let’s say that once there is a checkbox field called "My_Check_Box". When this field is checked, the "Account Type" field need to become a required for entry by the user. To do this follow these steps:
1. In the Admin> Application Customization, select the appropriate Object and go into the Object Field Setup.
2. Edit the field called "My_Check_Box" and enter a Field Validation expression so it uses the following expression:
=[<bMy_Check_Box_ITAG>] AND NOT([<AccountType>] IS NULL AND [<bMy_Check_Box_ITAG >]='Y')
3. Enter an explicit error message.
This expression means that when the checkbox field is checked, the Account Type becomes required. Your custom error message will be raised when checking the checkbox, leaving the account type unpopulated and trying to save the account record.
4. Edit the Account Type field and enter the following expression as Field Validation:
=[<AccountType>] AND NOT([<AccountType>] IS NULL AND [<bMy_Check_Box_ITAG >]='Y')
5. Enter an explicit error message.
That validation handles the user case where a user changes the Account Type value from a NOT NULL value to a NULL value. Your custom error message will be raised when emptying out the account type from a populated value to nothing while the checkbox is checked and trying to save the account record.
Note that the expression in both fields validations begins with the field variable on which the statement is being written.**

Any way to make Contacts Read Only in Server 10.8/9

I have turned on OS X Server Services Contacts (in either 10.8 or 10.9), set up a user account, added that account as a CardDav to a computer(s) made a group(s) of contacts and imported some vcards so everybody can see them in their Contacts on their computers in 10.8 or 10.9. Everything fine.
What I can't figure out is if there is any way to make them Read Only, allowing only a selected group to have Read/Write privileges. When you have hundreds of employees many of them will end up editing something in the "public contacts" that they shouldn't have done or delete them completely.
If they were read only that would be great.
Any ideas? Other then an exchange server there isn't much out there for Macs.
Thanks,
Todd

Update -
I found a way to make this work. And it is free!
Forget Apple OS X Server Service Contacts.
Use Sogo instead. Works perfectly and is extremely fast in handling our 5000+ public cardev records and 1000+ cardev private records!

How to make files read only

I want to make files read only. Any workaround is welcomed.

ElMagoElGato,
I am glad to give some help but I am still confused because we are having different experiences. I have been able to lock Tables on my mac and have that lock respected in iOS for a long while now. Easy to unlock, impossible to relock. With the most recent upgrade I can lock tables after tapping the upper left dot to select the whole table and going to "arrange" in the paintbrush.
When you say worksheet are you meaning the entire file? When you say file lock are you meaning password protection? You can see I am confused.
quinn
Based on what ElMagoElGato has described, password protecting would be of no value to him. Once the file is accessed, it is in edit mode. Unless I'm really missing something.
Files I have imported from Mac iworks apps with elements locked stay locked for me in iOS. Not sure what the problem is.

How to make JTextArea read only

I want to make JTextArea read only so that you can only append text at design time and not at run time and so the user can not delete text in the text area.

You can use the setEditable(boolean) method. I think that it's the best way.

Managing External Content Types - make it read only?

I have a simple SharePoint list with an External Data column. When I edit item where the corresponding data was removed from the External Content Type I get this error:
No exact match was found. Click the item(s) that did not resolve for more options. You can also use Select button to
choose External Data.
I assume this is by design and I cannot delete underlying data and keep the value in the list - is this correct?
So my question now - is it possible to keep that info in the external list but disable in a picker so new records cannot be created with that particular value? How do I do it?
Thanks,

I don't understand the question exactly, could you restate it. Sorry mate, I might just be braindead.
But, as far as the issue, it is by design. the column is a lookup columns which essentially ties to the external data. if that data is removed, the column on your simple list becomes invalid and any edits of the simple list item will require
it to be changed.
are you wanting to make the ECT read only? that's simple enough. you can pop open SPD and edit the ECT, then remove the C/E/D operations (create/update/delete). That will not, however make it read-only in any other systems that access that
external data, as I assume its not just SP or else it wouldn't be external

How to enable extension button of select-options but make it read only

Hi all,
I have select-options with extension on my selection screen. It has to be read only. But when I give screen-input = 0, even the extension button is disabled. So the user cannot see multiple default values of that field. How should I enable the extension button and still make it read-only.
Thanks in advance.
Vasu

Hi, try below sample code:
data: gv_bukrs type bukrs.
SELECT-OPTIONS s_one for gv_bukrs.
at SELECTION-SCREEN OUTPUT.
LOOP AT SCREEN.
    if screen-name = 'S_ONE-LOW' or screen-name = 'S_ONE-HIGH' .
       screen-input = 0.
       MODIFY SCREEN.
    endif.
ENDLOOP.
