You can use a new JSON entry point called onEditJSON on the onEdit event of a record. The onEditJSON function validates a value or formula as follows:

  • If the result is True, then the record enters edit mode and you can edit the record.
  • If the result is False, then the record does not enter edit mode and you cannot edit the record.


The onEditJSON function in the following example code disables edit when the account type is equal to HMO. 

<html><head><title>onEdit example</title><script type="text/javascript"> 
/** disable edit if accounttype = HMO **/
function onEditJSON() {
	return "[{\"action\":\"select\",\"invoke\":\"checkCondition\",\"parameters\":[{\"modulefields\":[{ \"module\":\"1\", \"fields\":\"ACCTKW01\"}],\"filter\":\"1.uid=$1.uid\"}]}]";
} 

function checkCondition(row) {
	var result; 
	result = "true";
	if(row. length>0){ 
		if(row[0]._1.ACCTKW01 == "HMO") {
			window.location = "melt://showAlert/No Edit Allowed"; 
			result = "false";
		}
	}
	return "[ {\"action\":\"validate\",\"result\":\"" + result + "\"} ]";
}
</script></head><body></body></html>
