The form action is pretty simple. It would look something like below. Then, you would click each of the underline sections to select the fields and values you want to use. The trick will be the last part about disabling the icon next to the drop down. That is not a built-in feature of SBM. It is probably possible using javascript, but you would need to figure out the script. Maybe someone else on here will jump in with some code they have used in the past. 

Anyone else have some sample code to remove/disable the submit button next to a relational field dropdown?

Steps to make a form action:

Thank you Vickie for your detail explain. I have made sense about Form Actions.

Does someone here use javascript to figure it out in the past?

Thanks

 Cuiwei Zhang   I am not sure I understand the description vs. example.  If you are simply trying to hide the "create new item" icon, then check this out: https://knowledgebase.serena.com/InfoCenter/index?page=content&id=S141731.  This will remove the icon all the time.

To disable / enable fields in general, the form action is pretty powerful.  You can even run javascript.  You can add javascript and attach to the form as well.  Here is a basic javascript based on the example.

function doSomething() {

var check = GetFieldValue("NEW_SUPPLIER");

If (check == "New Supplier") {

    DisableField("Existing Supplier");

} else {

//disable icon next to drop down.

}

AddChangeCallback("NEW_SUPPLIER", doSomething);

That is tricky. Using the If then that Vickie demonstrated and which you described at the beginning, on the If "New Supplier" you could try executing the following javascript:

jQuerySBM(GetFieldByName("Existing Supplier")).next().show()

jQuerySBM(GetFieldByName("Existing Supplier")).attr("disabled",true)

the Else If for Existing Supplier would be to execute the following javascript:

jQuerySBM(GetFieldByName("Existing Supplier")).next().hide();

jQuerySBM(GetFieldByName("Existing Supplier")).attr("disabled",false);

Though I think after using the image to add a new supplier the form will refresh and you will have to figure out a way to enable the field again. 

Thank you David

Hi Michael,

I used the Form Action that Vickie demonstrated and followed the JavaScript you designed. and it works great without any issues. The result is definitely what I need.

I am a newbie of the SBM. Can you advise the SBM JavaScript Document I need to learn from beginning?

Again, Thank you all!

Thank you Vickie, I followed your Form Action you mentioned here, and the JavaScript Michael designed. It works. I apricate it.

The SBM Documentation talks about the javascript api.  You will find the GetFieldByName in this document.
