Posted on by JYSSB7 Microsoft Employee

Hi, I have an entity/table here and most of the fields are not editable with a lock icon, see screenshot here:

I noticed that the quantity field is editable and I am able to click on it and freely change its value, but the other fields are not editable, and I would like to know where I can change these settings.

I went to the Power Apps Table and found where these columns are, but I don't see anywhere that lets me changes its edit-ability. For example, these are all the settings for Billing Frequency:

Hi @edel12345,

It looks like you are using an Editable Grid. If you have any business rules that are entity scoped, you'll want to confirm if those are locking the fields. The other things that would cause the fields to not be editable are field security profiles. You'll want to confirm if you have access to edit those columns if so.

Hi,
I checked the 2 places that you mentioned and they both seem fine to me:
I don't have any business rules set for this entity:
and the Field Security option is already set to Disable:
What else can I try?

What was the reason for the lock icon? I have the same thing on an editable grid, and there are no security profiles or business rules.
