Error message of item editibility

[PratikJain]

I have made a rule of item editibility. But I want to show my custom error. Is it possible?

Message that you want to show during Item Editability is set by Integrity. I know setting Custom Message there will be quite useful for end user understanding but i havn't found any option doing this. I am not sure but i don't think this is possible by direct customization. May be trigger code or JAVA API can help but still very few chances.

Hi Pratik,

Custom error messages can be created using constraints so if can create any constraint similar the editability without impacting any functionality, then your purpose will be solved.

Hi @chirag_kpit,

What do you mean by creating constraints here that can produce custom error message ? Can you please come over again on this and explain more about this ?

Hi Kapil,

Yes, we can add custom error message in constraints. While creating constraint there is button "Customize". Using this you can create your own custom message.

Hi Chirag

I think with combination of trigger and constraints, we can do it.

Thanks.

Hi Pratik,

If you are using trigger then constraint is not required.

You can directly provide error message in "abortScript" function.

Yes with trigger alone we can do it.

But with constraints we will be just able to restrict only one field.

How we will be able to restrict full item with a constraint?

[chirag_kpit]

It's difficult for me to resolve your issue without exactly knowing the problem.

So Either you need to explain me the scenario or you can go ahead with trigger.

Thanks in Advance. 🙂

For a particular CP, I want to block all the items related with CR.

[chirag_kpit]

This cannot be handled with constraint you need to create a trigger for this.

Constraints are used to restrict fields and values  within a item.

Hi @PratikJain,

Trigger may work here or "Allow Edits" with "MKS.RQ.Editability.Document.1" Properties can also help you but it's completely depends on how well you are customizing and configuring your solution.... Just a workaround..
