i have this screen. In the middle in the green field, the number that is there should be a customer number. Now I click on the button (sheet with the plus) to be able to create a new data record for this customer. This new data record should then appear in the yellow gallery after saving.

Now I have clicked the button and this screen appears.

Now I would like to achieve that the field "FZ_ID_KD" is displayed in the form with, but can no longer be edited, because that is the customer number from the moment and it should no longer be changed.

How do I manage to only display this individual field but not be able to edit it?

Best regards

Some data cards can be set to view only, depending on the data type. Others can be unlocked and then change the DisplayMode of the input control.

Hello @GarethPrisk
So I read your link carefully but I think that it doesn't help me there, because this field is filled with a formula and obviously it is like that, as soon as a field is filled with a formula you can no longer just display it ... or I just don't know how to do it then.

I have now helped myself with it:
I put a description field over this data card so that nothing can be changed in the data card. That went very well.
Nevertheless, thank you for your tip.

And if you have a tip or even a solution for me, I'll be very happy about it.

Best regards

@RoScha

Edit the fields on the Form (click Edit next to fields on the right property pane in the designer for the form). Choose the FZ_ID_KD field in the list of fields. Change its control type to View instead of edit.

If you have already unlocked that datacard, you will not be able to change this field. So, delete the field from the list and then add it back and then change the control type all in the field list.

I hope this is helpful for you.

Hello @RandyHayes
that is now a step further (and a little nasty trick) but now my customer number is no longer displayed and it was previously displayed with the same formula in the same field
What am I doing wrong now?

So the problem is also solved ... that was a mistake of mine because I had built it myself. Now everything is going as wanted and explained by you @RandyHayes
