Requirement:
I want to create a nintex form that will show the user only the fields where they need to enter data. However if an administrator or other named group wants to add a new item or edit an existing item, i want them to see all possible fields. |
Solution:
Place all the control for an Admin into a Panel control. Then, open the configuration of the Panel control and in the Appearance section, click on the drop down for Visible. You should see an option for Yes, No and Expression.
Choose expression and then click on the Inline Functions tab. You'll find a function called IsMemberOfGroup. You can use this like:
fn-IsMemberOfGroup('Administrators')
So what this means, is that the selected control will only be visible if the current user of a member of the Administrators group.
Also, is it possible to allow everyone to see the controls, but only enable the controls for a specific SharePoint group?
when I open the control settings for the PANEL, I only see "visible" options. I do not see enable options.
I figured it out. You have to set the expression on each individual control. This option is not available if you use the panel.
I thought there was some kind of limit on the number of rules on a form? As in, if there are too many they won't all work?
Thank you, exactly what I was looking for!
Enabled = false means that the value is null on saving the form, so you will loose information if there is any.
Hi together,
but the columns disabled within the form can be changed anymore using the quick edit, isn't it?
BTW, is there a way to set column permissions dependent on the content of a specific field as well as the user working within the item (e.g. with JavaScipt,...)?
For example: The column "Department" with content "Marketing" may only be writable for user of the SharePoint Group "Marketing"
Any ideas would be great.
yes, it still can be changed with quick edit. but you can disable quick edit in list settings.
you can only set permissions for whole item, not for a specific column/field.
If i have tab form , some of these tabs can edit by who create the form only ,
how i can do this ?!?!
