Remove action in reference table deck view

[Tom_automated]

I am trying to hide the email action of a reference table. I want the email action to be visible when viewed in the regular deck view, but hidden when viewed as a reference table if the customer view, as in below:

I’ve tried

[Suvrutt_Gurjar]

Please try CONTEXT(“View”)<>“Customer” instead of CONTEXT(“ViewType”)<>“Customer”

CONTEXT(“ViewType”) is more generic related to type of views such as “Table”, “Deck” , “Map” etc. and will apply to all views of that type for that table. It needs to be used with type of view names.

CONTEXT(“View”) needs to be used with various actual view names in the app.

@Tom_automated
You can create a REF type Deck View with actions disabled for that inline table.

@Suvrutt_Gurjar
I believe CONTEXT(“ViewType”) <> “Customer” will always return TRUE value, as there is no particular ViewType named as Customer. The approach of Tom is correct but unfortunately the Child view/table cannot access and read the value of a Mother view/table from the Detail view, therefore CONTEXT(“View”) expression will not be working either. The is the same when working with Mother/Child ref/reverse-ref Form UX.

Hi @LeventK ,

Thank you for your guidance. My testing showed that by using the parent view name in the action condition for the inline records view, the action “Delete” gets hidden.

The first picture below is of hidden action with parent view name. The picture below that is of the child table’s independent deck view, where the “Delete” action is present. May be I am missing some point. Will appreciate your guidance.

By the way nice to see your responses in the community again. Your posts are always insightful.
