Ajay,

Is the field standard? If yes are you sure you have checked the Checkbox for ReadOnly in the same screen? Please cross check the screen and platform.

Thanks

Hi Ajitesh,

Thank you for the reply.

Yes, the field is standard one and I have checked the read-only checkbox in same screen.

Actually, for this particular screen, I have made same changes to some other fields, but for this field, it is not working.

Please suggest.

Hi Ajay,

This should definitely work.

Which platform are you using and which screen you have enhanced?

You are testing on WPF or actual device?

2. If you are using assignment type 8 then please check it in the "workorderaddbyworkcenter screen".

Thanks Ajitesh.

But as per requirement, I need to make it read only in Work Order Edit screen, not in Work Order Add screen.

[Former Member · Accepted solution]

Ok, In standard WM 6.3 workorder edit action uses "Work Order Add screen". You can create another screen which will be "Workorder Edit screen " and pass that screen from WorkorderEditwrapper action.

OK.

Thanks Ajitesh.

I will try this out and let you know.

So, do I need to add edit screen in WorkOrderEditTileByPlannerGroup screen set?

Regards,

Ajay

No dont add this screen to workorderplannergroupadd, Go to WorkorderEditWrapper action step then navigate to workordereditbyassignmenttype subaction step and navigate to the action there add another subaction which will be for workorderedit. Execute this action only if assignmenttype is 2. In the subaction pass workorder edit transaction and your workorder edit screen. If you dont have workorder edit screen then just copy workorderadd and rename it. it will work.

Thanks

Thanks a lot Ajitesh.

It's perfectly working for Work Order Edit screen.

Unfortunately, I have encountered another issue as Work Order Add screen is too coming with non-editable fields.

Any suggestions on that.

Ajay,

Now navigate to workorderEditByAssignmentType action step and go to the subaction workorderEdit. In execution rule add the above condition. means NOT of assignmentType 2. (NOT -> EQSTR-> assignmentType(2)).

Then change your setting whatever you did previously for disabling description field.

Thanks

Thanks Ajitesh.

I have updated the execution rule accordingly.

Please comment on below screen:

I have created a Zworkorderedit screen, replica of workorderadd screen.

But, this is in the Work Order Add Screen Set.

This way is right, or I need to move this z screen somewhere else.

Please suggest.

Regards,

Ajay

You do not need this "Z" screen set here. Check whatever previously checked. do not modify anything to standard.

Go to WorkorderEditWrapper action step then navigate to workordereditbyassignmenttype subaction step and navigate to the action there add another subaction which will be for workorderedit. Execute this action only if assignmenttype is 2. In the subaction pass workorder edit transaction and your Zworkorderedit screen.

Hope this makes you clear.

Thanks

Now, its very clear.

Hi Ajay,

I'm quite sure you are not editing the right field or not publishing the changes in a right way if not even "Always disable" works.

To ensure that, change the field label to something different and see if this is reflected in the screen.
