Access Control to a field on a form

Eric_Krasner · February 2018

Is it possible to add some code to a form (HardwareAsset.js) in the CustomSpace folder that would make a field read only unless you were in a specific group?

@Eric_Krasner - I just want to clarify the process. You only need one copy of the actual HardwareAsset.js form. The variation comes from defining the sections or "IDs" in the forms. Like @Joe_Burrows said, you can copy/paste the "default" section and give it a new name. That is the form ID you place in Admin Settings/Group Settings. It sounds like you want to make the field disabled in the default section and define an "AssetAdmin" section where the field is active and then specify access for your AssetAdmin AD group.

Hi Eric

Yes you would just create a custom form with a new form ID, then add that to "Assign forms to active directory groups" in the admin settings.

Same process for IR\SR\CR etc as outlined here: https://support.cireson.com/KnowledgeBase/View/51

Any questions let me know

Cheers
Joe

@Joe_Burrows thanks, but i was asking more if you could limit access to just a field on a form. Everyone needs to see the field, but only a few people should have access to change the data in the field.

Yep same would apply, default form could have read-only on field x (with disabled=true).

Then your custom form could have edit ability on field x (with disabled=false). And that Custom form is assigned to your AD group.

This would avoid having to write custom java script.

@Joe_Burrows can you have more than one of the same custom forms in the CustomSpace folder. I have the HardwareAsset.js in the CustomSpace folder already and have made quite a few additions.

Yep you can have as many as your want, just copy 'default' and give it a meaningful name, this then becomes your form ID you assign to an AD group.
