Locking already printed data

Featured Replies

  • Newbies

Hello,

can somebody give me a hint how to lock data, that have been printed or expired?

I am using a calendar in my company and my employees should not be able to change already past days or created and printed invoices. It looks like I cannot do this with a script, is there any other possibility to move this data to a admin section where it cannot be reached by others?

thanx

Welcome to the Forums.

You might consider creating a locked layout (where all the fields are set to no data entry) which, when a user goes to access the record, is the layout the system will go to if the record has been printed or is expired. The way to do this is to have a field which contains the status of the record, and which gets filled in when the record is printed (or when it is expired), and which gets checked by a script when the user wants to view the record. If the field contains, say "new" or "unprinted" (or whatever), you go to the layout where you can edit the record. If the field contains, say, "printed" or "expired" then you are taken to the locked layout.

Thanx very much Stanley,

I am still thinking of a way to fit this into my solution:

Would it be enough to have the field saying sth like " if(date expired/field not empty) Goto LockedLayout" or would you write a script?

Thanx again,
