Read-only column in Person

Question

Hello everyone, 
 I want to modify the EmployeeType column in the Person so that when a new identity is created, this field is read-only and can only be changed through a template. I updated the OnLoaded script by adding "Base.Columns("EmployeeType").CanEdit = False", but this only works when I open an existing identity. It doesn't work for a new one. 
 To explain better, I want the EmployeeType field to be read-only, just like the ImportSource field. 
 Does anyone have any suggestions? 
 Thanks, Elena

You can use the CanEdit Script on the column Person.EmployeeType. Value = False

Hi Elena, 
 one solution could be to clone all permission groups (and related items) and remove insert/edit right on Person.EmployeeType. That would be in v9.2.1: * VI_4_ALLMANAGER => CCC_4_ALLMANAGER * VI_4_PERSONADMIN => CCC_4_PERSONADMIN * VI_Person_EditRights => CCC_Person_EditRights 
 Update AERoles to use CCC groups instead. 
 Attention: Carefully review the VI permission groups after version upgrades to ensure your CCC permission groups still match except Person.EmployeeType
