Example

In this example we first set read_only attribute of the invoices item to true. It makes all fields and invoice_table detail read only. After that we allow a user to edit customer field and invoice_table detail.

function on_edit_form_created(item) {
    item.read_only = true;
    item.customer.read_only = false;
    item.invoice_table.read_only = false;
}
