Freeze field value after initial update

[Former Member]

Hi,

I have a query related to MDM Data Manager and wish to know if this can be achieved in MDM.

One of the fields in MDM Console to be created so that its value can be updated in Data manager. Post initial update its value should be freezed forever. This field values should not change after initial update (First update should be the last update).

Basically its for audit purpose.

Please let me know if this can be achieved in MDM.

Attempts so far:

I created a GM/ Date time stamp/ literal date stamp field in console trying to achieve this functionality but couldn't achieve the outcome. Tried making modification on change tracking options - no go.

Appreciate the response/ ideas to achieve this requirement.

Regards,

Mir

Hi Mir,

Not sure if I understood your question correctly, but did you already try to set the property "Writeable Once" to true in the MDM Console?

Kind regards,

Hi Gerwin,

Thanks for responding!

To an extent your response has assisted achieving the requirement.

I am able to achieve this through Literal Date since this is not possible through Time stamp (where in I can select field name based on which this field value shall be updated). Wish writeable once option was enabled for field type "Time stamp"  (limitations set, fields is greyed)

Hi Mir,

The only date-field in MDM that is writeable once is the Create Stamp, but this is system-generated (upon creation of a record), so it might just be a little bit to limited for your purpose.

Kind regards,

Gerwin
