Read-Only Pre-condition does not show up to be configurable
Hello Jazz Community,
Our team has ran into a bit of a wall here. We are in the Operation Behavior section and we wanted to use the precondition, Read-Only Attributes for Type and State. When we add this to the list of preconditions nothing shows up in the window to allow us to configure them. We read through these instructions but do not see the configuration box that should appear on the lower right hand corner of the screen https://jazz.net/library/article/997. Any insight on why this feature is not working as expected would be very helpful. Thank you! |

Upon digging into this some more, I don't think this will be fixed. Our N-1 client support covers any developer activities but this is considered an administrative activity for which a current version client is required.

The upper portion of the Operational Behaviors section is a grid of operations and roles. You need to select a cell in that table to indicate the role and operation for which you want to configure the precondition. If nothing is configured for that role/operation, the cell is empty, otherwise it has an icon in it. The article you listed doesn't really talk about that part, so just making sure you realize how the page works in general.
If you choose the Save Work Item (server) operation and the Everyone role (which may already have an icon in it), then make sure the "Preconditions and follow-up actions are configured for this operation" check box is checked, then click Add... to choose Read-Only Attributes for Type and State (or select it in the Preconditions list), the area to the right should display configuration options. I have tried it with multiple users (some who don't have permission to save the changes) and it always works fine. If you still can't make it work, please describe your steps in more detail so I can try to reproduce it.
