How to make Child BC Read Only based on Parent BC field?

6 May 2009 2 Comments

Scenario:

Parent BC: Service Request
Child BC: Activities

If Service Request business component Status field is closed then the Action BC should become read only.

Implementation:

1. Create a Calculated Field in Parent BC – Service Request as shown below –
Field Name: Calc Status Closed
Calculated Value: IIF([Status] = “Closed”,”Y”,”N”). …Thanks Vijaya for noticing it

Note: Set the Links Specification Property to TRUE for the field: [Calc Status Closed]

2. Create a BC User Property in Child BC – Action as shown below -
Name: Parent Read Only Field: Service Request
Value: Calc Status Closed

And it is done…

    Hi Vivek I think for the calculated value should look like this IIf([Status]=”Closed”,”Y”,”N”)
