How to Make certain Fields as Display only on a Record Layout?

Hi,

You can do this with SugarCRM dependencies. Follow this link for help. In actions you can use 'ReadOnly' instead of 'SetRequired'

Hi Tarun,

Please go to 'Studio' in the 'Admin' panel. In 'Studio' click on your desired module (e.g. Contacts, Accounts, Leads etc).

Then click on Layouts. There you will see the 'Record View' icon. If you click on it you will get the option to display or hide anything from the record view of that particular module by simply dragging and dropping Panels and Rows.

Hope this answers your question.

If you want them to be readonly only in record view (no inline edit) then edit

custom/modules/<the_ module>/clients/base/views/record/record.php

and set readonly => true

E.g.

             array (

                'name' => 'the_field_name',

                'readonly' => 'true',

              ),

For your quick reply on this, but i want this field to be used as editable on the other forms. So i needed to be read only in Record View only. So implemented as Francesca has suggested and it worked the way i wanted it.

Thank you

Tarun.
