SMD - 'Required' check box grayed out in schema

[Tammy Zadell]

I can't seem to change the 'Requestor' field in the schema to not be required.  The check box is grayed out, as shown below.  Am I doing something wrong?

 

Thanks.

As far as I know there is no way to uncheck it.

 

As a workaround you can define a default value on a form level:

<input type="hidden" name="SET.requestor" value="<DEFAULT_UUID_HERE>">

Or you can set current user as defualt on schema level:

// FileName: z_cr_dflt_req.mod
MODIFY cr requestor
{
ON_NEW DEFAULT USER;
};

Thanks... It just seems pretty strange that the 'Requested by' field in the incident and call request tables can be checked or unchecked, but not the 'Requestor' field in the change table....

Hi Tammy,

I think, the difference is that the first(chg.requestor) is required on both layers (object and db schema) by default, while the requested_by attribute in the in object (Call_Req Table) is only made required (by the checkbox) on the object layer.

Kind Regards
