Make "Company" Field editable

[former_member64271]

Hello Experts,

We are using E-Sourcing 5.1 with most of the out-of-the-box functionality. When creating an Auction, header section contains field "Company". This field appears as read only, and populates automatically based on the company defined in the user profile.

I tried making this field editable by means of page customizing (UI ID: doc.auction.multi.universal.auctionevent.ui.buyside.default), but even when I declare field COMPANY as Editable = YES, the change is not reflected in the UI.

Any ideas on how to make this field editable so end-users can select another company code besides the one specified in their profile? Your help is appreciated. Thanks!

Hi Gilberto

Unfortunately it is not possible to make the company field editable. Workaround could be to hide the standard COMPANY field in page customization and create a new extension definition lets say "Company" with data type: Object Refrence and choose 'Company' as the object reference type.

Hope this would meet your requirement.
