3380641 - Field Set To Be Read Only at Groupware Settings Doesn’t Reflect As Such in the Add-In View

Symptom

Field set to be read only at groupware settings doesn't reflect as such in the add-in view.

Environment

  • SAP Cloud for Customer
  • Server Side Integration

Reproducing the Issue

  1. Login in the Server Side Application.
  2. Try to create a new object e.g. ticket.
  3. Notice that the field that was made visible at Groupware settings is editable. 

Resolution

For new objects:  During the creation dialog, the field will always remain editable for the user.
For existing objects:  When the "Read Only" flag is activated, the specified field will not be editable for existing objects.
