Is there a way to make a row editable if (condition)?

[jamijr]

Hello!

I’d like to know if I can make an entire record be editable only if a certain condition is true. For example: I want my users to be able to add records and be able to edit them up to 7 days after adding.

I know I can do that in a per-column way. Is there any way to do this for the whole row?

Provided you have a datetime/date column in your table, for sure it’s possible.

I tried to create a slice of the table with only records older than 7 days and marked it as “Read Only”. When I click on “View Data” it shows only the desired records, but the app still allows me to edit it these records.

No need for the slice. Just enter an expression for the Only if this condition is true property of System Edit action for that particular table:

TODAY() - [Date] <= 7

or

[Date] + 7 <= TODAY()

or

[Date] <= TODAY() - 7
