Hi Community,

Greetings,

I would greatly appreciate if anyone could help me out with the below Please:

1. How to restrict a group of an employee from the using of a particular field in the common form?

2. How to gray out a field without making it READ ONLY?

Best Regards

@iqbal_bhat great questions. 

First thing I would need to know to better answer your question is what SAP Concur platform are you on? Are you on our Standard or are Professional platform. There is a big difference between the two and how much can be customized. 

If you happen to be on our Standard platform, neither option you mentioned is available. 

On our Professional platform I don't believe you can restrict certain users from using a certain field on the common form. You would need to customize a form and then make that form available to a certain group using a certain policy. Without having taken our Advanced Configuration Training, you wouldn't have access to Groups, Forms and Fields or Policies. 

I hope this helps.

Hi Kavin,

Thanks for your reply.

we have access to make the changes. however, I have 1 policy and 2 groups and want to align two different forms on the groups or particular expense type to make visible to a particular group or to make them restrict to use the certain fields without running the audit rule.

Thanks in advance

@iqbal_bhat sounds like you'll need to create a second policy then. I know for sure you can customize the available expense types by policy. So, if one of your groups needs to see an expense type the other group doesn't need to see, you would have to do that by policy. I also believe that once you have that policy, you can make additional forms for that specific expense type that is only visible to the one group. 

Have you taken our Advanced Configuration class?
