Dynamic hiding of buttons in a Price List or Live Price Grid allows for a tailored user experience by specifying which buttons to hide and when in the JSON definition of a Price Setting Type. This configuration enables you to set criteria for when certain buttons should be hidden, ensuring that users are presented only with actions that are relevant to them.

The criteria defined in the JSON configuration are evaluated dynamically during each "refresh", ensuring that only applicable options are displayed to end users at all times. This configuration impacts both the buttons visible on the Detail page and the contextual buttons on the List page.

The following buttons can be hidden in the JSON configuration (false = hidden):

Price Lists

"buttons": { "editButton": false, "submitButton": false, "calculateButton": false, "assignToCustomerButton": false, "copyButton": false, "deleteButton": false, "publishingButton": false, "revisionButton": false, "mergeButton": false, "addProductsButton": false, "revokeButton": false, "cancelComputationButton": false, "showWorkflowButton": false, "showDefinitionButton": false, "showSummaryButton": false, "moveToFolderButton": false, "massEditButton": false, "massDeleteButton": false, "showProductDetailsButton": false, "initSimulationButton": false, "showSimulationButton": false, "formulaEditorButton": false, "portletCalculationInputsButton": false, "headerLogicSaveAndRecalculateButton": false, "outputChartDefinition": false, "calculationResultsButton": false }
