[mohammed24]

Hi experts,

How to set feature attributes as readonly in backoffice based on type of attribute?

is there any service through which we can set this as readonly?

Note : i need this through java and not impex

By importing the following ImpEx, you can set Product.approvalStatus as readonly for boprodmgr

 $passwordEncoding=md5
 $defaultPassword=1234
 $setPassword=@encodedPassword[translator=de.hybris.platform.impex.jalo.translators.ConvertPlaintextToEncodedUserPasswordTranslator][default='$passwordEncoding:$defaultPassword']
 
 INSERT_UPDATE UserGroup;UID[unique=true];groups(uid)[mode=append]
 ;boproductmanagergroup;backofficeproductmanagergroup
 
 INSERT_UPDATE Employee;UID[unique=true]
 ;boprodmgr
 
 UPDATE Employee;UID[unique=true];$setPassword;groups(uid);sessionLanguage(isocode);sessionCurrency(isocode)
 ;boprodmgr;;boproductmanagergroup;en;EUR
 
 $START_USERRIGHTS
 Type;UID;MemberOfGroups;Password;Target;read;change;create;delete;change_perm
 UserGroup;boproductmanagergroup
 ;;;;Product.approvalStatus;;-;;;
 $END_USERRIGHTS

Hi Arvind,

How can I make an attribute non-editable through impex. I have an attribute at Category type and I do not want it to be edited through impex as well. I used validateinterceptor but it did not work though i kept impex.legacy.mode as false. Please help.

Hi ,

My suggestions will not be through java, but you may find these also helpful.

Firstly, we can set the attribute modifier as readonly="true" in *backoffice-config.xml to make our attributes not editable in backoffice.

Secondly, we can use the Access Rights for a usergroup to specify that it has only read access to the attribute. This change will work for all tools. More information https://wiki.hybris.com/display/release5/Access+Rights

I hope these will be a solution for you.

Best Regards,
