Business Process Flow - Assign a User (AAD Users Table)

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 288

I have a business process flow and it is using the Users AAD Users Virtual Table (lookup) to allow the user to select a user to assign a case to.

 

However, it appears to be LOCKED...what permissions do I need to set in order for my end user to select a user from the Users Table?

There is no business rule to lock it...so I don't know why the user is not allowed to select a user to assign a case to.

 

Thanks,
Mark

    Hi @smithmrk ,

     

    I don't know why the field is locked but here is a JS code to unlock the field in bpf.

    Please try this

    https://www.daymandynamics.com/how-to-lock-fields-on-a-form-and-business-process-flow/

    CRM.lockAllBPFFields = function (formContext) {
     formContext.ui.controls.forEach(function (control, index) {
     var controlName = control.getName();
     if (controlName.indexOf("header_process_") !== -1) {
     control.setDisabled(false);
     }
     });
    };

     

    Best Regards,

    Wearsky

    Hi @smithmrk 

     

    Please could you check if placing this field on the form results in the same. The other thing I would check is the read permissions of Microsoft Entra ID table for the security role that those users have been assigned who are experiencing this issue.

     

    I hope this information helps. Please give it a thumbs up if you appreciate my efforts. If it helps solve your issue then please also give it a thumbs up so that it helps others with similar isssues.

     

    Kind regards

    It turns out it was a security setting.  I did not have Append and Append To checked off in the Security Role.

    Sorry for wasting everyones time.

     

    Thanks,
