Prevent to set current stage as Active in BPF

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by

I want to create a bpf of different stages. Once the BPF moves from one stage to another. I don't want the user to be able to set the stage as Active later on. Is there any way to do it?

    Hi @summitb ,

    Can you explain what a BPF is?

    Hi @summitb , you mean the user should be able to pass the process to the next stage, but shouldn't be able to set one stage as active directly? I doubt that's possible. You can prevent a user to set the BPF to the next stage for example by making one field mandatory and make sure that user is not able to change that field (using the security/permission framework). Or you can make a BPF completely read only for users with a certain role.

     

    @timl BPF stands for Business Process Flow

    @timl I meant Business process flow by BPF. 

    Solved it by creating a workflow and fields in the primary entity that stored different entities that are there in different stages of BPF. Triggered the workflow when the Business process status changes and set the status and BPF entity fields based on the fields in the primary entity.
