For the detail view you will have to create a custom view.detail.php which will evaluate the value for the status.
If the current record can not be edited, according to staus value, you can remove the button “Edit” from layout on the fly:

custom/modules/Qutoes/views/view.detail.php


 <?php
if(!defined('sugarEntry') || !sugarEntry) die('Not A Valid Entry Point');

require_once('include/MVC/View/views/view.detail.php');

class ModuleNameViewDetail extends ViewDetail {
    function display() {
        if($this->bean->field_name == 'some_value') {
            unset($this->dv->defs['templateMeta']['form']['buttons'][0]);
        }
    
        $this->dv->process();
    
        echo $this->dv->display();
    }
}
?>

Replace the strings “ModuleName”, “field_name”, “some_value” with the appropriate values.

As for the listview that may be a bit more difficult.

… maybe because you have included view.detail.php but you have extended viewList

5

than how can i solve this ?

6

ya it was silly mistake

now its calling process function but its giving
Missing argument 1,2,3 for ListViewSmarty::process(),

function process($file, $data, $htmlVar)

do we need to pass file name along with it ???

7

unset($this->dv->defs[‘templateMeta’][‘form’][‘buttons’][0]);

dosen’t unset the option so i include and hide the button ??

but why unset is not working

did you fixed this question?

just as a note: even if you remove the button, people will still be able to edit the record (e.g. changing the Url from action=DetailView to action=EditView) -> it’s just “eye candy”, not a security measure.
