Grid - Custom readonly Row

[Prasanth]

Hi there,

Is there a way to make a specific row read-only based on a column value i.e. Current user ID. Let's say an employ can see all the orders within the company but only able to edit his/her orders. I am not sure whether this can be achieved through server side.

I am using ASP.NET authentication and can get the user information through HttpContext.User.

Regards

Adding more to the query:

Also how can a column be made read-only based on another column value e.g. Boolean or DateTime

Hi Prasanth,

Thanks for contacting Syncfusion support.

Queries	Response
“Is there a way to make a specific row read-only based on a column value?”	Yes, we can make a specific row read-only by defining args.cancel as true in BeginEdit event of ejGrid. This event triggers before the record is edited. In this event, we get the row details in the arguments. Using for loop, we can get each column value and stop the editing by defining args.cancel as true. Please find the code example and sample: @(Html.EJ().Grid<Sample118577.Order>("FlatGrid") .Datasource(Model) .AllowSorting() .AllowPaging() .EditSettings(edit => { edit.AllowAdding().AllowDeleting().AllowEditing(); })     .ClientSideEvents(eve => eve.BeginEdit("beginedit").ActionComplete("querycell")) ------------------------------------------------ function beginedit(args) {         var children = args.row.children();         for( var i = 0 ; i < children.length ; i++)         {             if ($(children[i]).text() == "Brazil")                 args.cancel = true;         }     } Sample: http://www.syncfusion.com/downloads/support/forum/121827/ze/Sample1185771817393863 Refer to the Help document for Beginedit event, http://help.syncfusion.com/js/api/ejgrid#events:beginedit
“Also how can a column be made read-only based on another column value e.g. Boolean or DateTime”	We can make the column read only using actionComplete event of ejGrid. In this event, we check the condition with the requestType, and disable the CustomerID column by adding the disabled attribute. Please find the code example and sample: @(Html.EJ().Grid<Sample118577.Order>("FlatGrid") .Datasource(Model) .AllowSorting() .AllowPaging() .EditSettings(edit => { edit.AllowAdding().AllowDeleting().AllowEditing(); })     .ClientSideEvents(eve => eve.BeginEdit("beginedit").ActionComplete("querycell")) --------------------------------------------------- function querycell(args) {         if (args.requestType == "beginedit") {             var data = this.element.find(".e-editedrow").find("input");             var input = this.element.find(".e-editedrow").find("input")[1];             for (var i = 0 ; i < data.length ; i++) {                 if ($(data[i]).attr("value") == "false") {                     $(input).attr("disabled", "disabled");                 }             }         }     } Refer to the following actionComplete event Help document, http://help.syncfusion.com/js/api/ejgrid#events:actioncomplete
