Prevent Field Edits

When the mobile editor accesses a Responder incident in the field, certain fields are visible and editable. You can manage which fields the mobile editor can view or modify using the MobileField attribute in the DatabaseSchemaConfig.xml file.

Open DatabaseSchemaConfig.xml for editing. By default, this file is installed here: C:\Program Files (x86)\Miner and Miner\Responder\Server.
Look for the MobileField attribute on the following tables:

Table	Description
RX_INCIDENTS	These fields are displayed on the General tab in Responder Mobile and in the incident details section on the Current Task screen (above the General and Devices tabs), and on the Home tab when an incident is selected.
RX_INCIDENT_DEVICES	Fields from this table are displayed on the Devices tab in the Electric Devices section and on the Details window for an electric device.
RX_INCIDENT_FEATURES	Fields from this table are displayed on the Devices tab in the Location Features section and on the Details window for a location device.
RX_HAZARDS	Fields from this table are displayed on the Devices tab in the Hazards section and on the Details window for a hazard.
RX_CREW_ASSIGNMENTS	Fields from this table are used to assign incidents to the proper crew and maintain incident modifications. Do not change the MobileField settings for this table.

You can modify the MobileField value on a field to make it read only or editable. If you remove the MobileField attribute entirely, the data from that field will not be sent to the field user along with the incident. Do not remove a MobileField attribute if it already exists. This may result in blank fields in the user interface.

enabled: The contents of this field are included in the data sent with the mobile incident. The field user may edit this field.
enabledReadOnly: The contents of this field are included in the data sent with the mobile incident. This field is read only; the field user may NOT edit it.
trackingEnabled: Do not modify a field that has the MobileField attribute set to trackingEnabled. This will change how edits are processed.

Save and close DatabaseSchemaConfig.xml.

If you choose to add the MobileField attribute to a field that previously did not have it, you will need to create a new user interface component to display that field in the user interface (see Developer Guide).
