#2614 - Vardef Type Options

Closed Feature created by cmultari Verified Purchase 4 years ago

I'm trying to set some conditional vardefs on a signature that fall outside the scope of "Read only after save". For example, a user may accidentally brush the signature field with their hand on a mobile device, not notice it, then save the record. The signature would still need to editable after that without discarding the whole record. In our CRM, I have a "Ready To Submit" checkbox. I would like to make the signature readonly/disabled after that box is selected.

If I do this by setting the 'type' to readonly, Editview will display the actual DB contents (e.g. data:image/png;base64,iVBORw0KGgoAAAANSUhEUgAAAfQA...). Trying to disable the field on edit view appears to do nothing (record is still editable). Is there a way around this?

    Hello,

    In deed I am unsure this scenario can be handled currently in the field. if you're changing the "type", SuiteCRM will replace the "signature field" layout/code by the type you specified. Setting up a readonly field is only working for "text" field within SuiteCRM.

    Disabling the field using read-only vardef option is not yet supported in the module. How do you try to achieve the readonly flag : hardcoded ? via code depending on another field ?

    After having looked to the codebase, I think the most possible way would be to add a boolean check feature working like "readonly after save" but that would be a circuit breaker : it would disable the module only if both "readonly after save" is enable AND the checkbox (name of the checkbox) is checked. It would answer your need to what I understood.

    Unfortunately I am currently not planning this feature is not yet planed in our roadmap for the module as I am on other projects. If you're open to professionnal services offer, I might challenge my own agenda and do some extra work in weekend. Just answer us in this thread and if you agree, I will send a fair price regarding amount of work to extend the module. Please note that the service and payment will still be processed directly by SuiteCRM store.

    Regards IDevIT
