How to make child table field read only as per child table field condition whenever load

I am working with a Child Table, where the conditional statements work properly when I load a record into the child table. However, now I want to set a child table field as read-only. Please help.

frappe.ui.form.on("Asset List", {
  form_render(frm, cdt, cdn) {
    let child_doc = locals[cdt][cdn];
    let dispatchedStatus = child_doc.dispatched_status; 
    let fieldname = "dispatched_status"; 

if (dispatchedStatus !== "Pending") {
      console.log("Not pending");
//code here for read only child table field  "dispatched_status"

    } else {
      console.log("pending");
//code here for not read only child table field  "dispatched_status"
    }
  },
});

Why don’t you use depend on condition? Did you check by putting condition in depend on?

@NCP
In my scenario, I have an “asset_list” containing multiple items, each with a “dispatched_status” field. The requirement is that once an item is dispatched, its “dispatched_status” should not be editable again. The “dispatched_status” field is a Select field with options [Pending, Dispatch, Self-purchase].

If I go with “depends_on” and set it to eval:doc.dispatched_status=="Dispatch", the field becomes read-only or disabled. However, if a user intends to dispatch but suddenly decides to set it as “Self-purchase”, it won’t work. That’s why I want the “dispatched_status” field to be read-only whenever it is loaded.

Hi @Talib_Sheikh
Please try this code. I hope it will help you.

frappe.ui.form.on('Test Child', {
    status: function(frm, cdt, cdn) {
        let child_doc = locals[cdt][cdn];
        if (child_doc.status == "Pending") {
            frm.fields_dict['child_name'].grid.grid_rows_by_docname[cdn].toggle_editable('field_name', false);
        } else {
            frm.fields_dict['child_name'].grid.grid_rows_by_docname[cdn].toggle_editable('field_name', true);
        }
    }
});

Thank You!

It makes complete column read only. Is it possible to make only that field read only in that row only?

Have you found any solution to make field “read only” only for that filed not for whole column?
