In the CREATEDR application, I need the TYPE field to be editable if the status is DRAFT

  • 1.  In the CREATEDR application, I need the TYPE field to be editable if the status is DRAFT

    I'm trying to customize some functionality in the Create Requisition application.  You may remember I had asked some questions about this a few weeks ago.  Anyway, I can't currently figure out how to solve this:

    If I try to create a Requisition either by going to View Drafts and choosing to edit a Draft, or by going to View Templates and clicking the "Copy to New Requisition" button, both of these take me over to the Create Requisition application, and the TYPE field that I added to the UI is read-only.

    My requirement is: when in the CREATEDR application, if the status = 'DRAFT', then the TYPE field needs to be editable.  Sounds simple, but I can't figure out how I can make that happen. . .figuring out a good launch point for a Script, or how to use Conditional UI to set the inputmode to editable, or any other way to go about it.  Ideas?

    To rephrase:

    The current out-of-the-box behavior is that if the record has not yet been saved, TYPE is editable.  Once it has been saved, it becomes read-only.  The Drafts and Templates are different varieties of MR's that were previously saved.

    I need to change the behavior to be "as long as it is still Status = DRAFT then the TYPE field is editable."
