Disable Cell Editing for a particular field

[anjanas]

Is there a way I can disable cell editing for a particular column alone ?

For eg : I am creating a custom column CustColumn for Incident table, I don't want to allow user to edit that particular column value from Incident List View. How can I do that ?

Currently I am calling a client script on cell edit which returns false on edit.

function onCellEdit(sysIDs, table, oldValues, newValue, callback) {
var saveAndClose = false;
callback(saveAndClose);
}

But it allows user to enter the values, but doesn't save. I would like to disable the input box when they click for cell edit itself (same way it doesn't allow cell edit for few types of columns (like lists) ). How can I do that ?

Hi,

You can create 'list_edit' ACL like this:

Thanks for the reply. I am using a trial developer account, I don't have an option to create new ACL. Am I missing something here? Do I need to add some extra roles for that?

To be able to create an ACL you need to elevate security_admin permissions:
