Figure 14: Record Locking Form Validator Error Message
| Note |
|---|
The Record Locking Form Validator's is not meant to be used for "Regular" use cases. The validator's error message is only accessible for advanced users through editing the form page's source code. For example, since the Record Locking Form Element does not allow the users to save a locked record (the "Save" button is hidden), an advanced user can attempt to circumvent this by inspecting another page's source code and copying the save button HTML element and attempt to save the form; This is where the Record Locking Form Validator can be of use, as it would still deny the user from saving the form even though the "Save" button is shown. |
| Name | Description |
|---|---|
| Error Message | Message to be displayed when the user tries to manipulate a locked record. |
| Form | Select the form to be locked from editing. |
