As I’m aware disabling editing of data values happens through locking mechanism which is mainly dependent on expiry date and data approval.
We have a situation in Sri Lanka where we are already using expiry date and data approval in the data workflow. But due to practical reasons we cannot set a relatively short expiry date. We are assessing performance of facilities based on data set completion date. To achieve our objective we need to lock the data set after completion thereby if a user needs to edit data again then he first has to incomplete data set (so completeness date changes accordingly).
Currently we are using a modified form.js in web-data entry folder to achieve this. Just wondering whether there are any plans to implement this feature in near future.

thanks, to clarify, what you want is simply to disable the input fields when the complete button is clicked, and the renable the input fields when the incomplete button is clicked?

Dear All,
This is with reference to the previous discussion on similar issue in 2015 (link below)

Referring to the same issue and some challenges we experience (jira issue), such a functionality will really help . It can be a data set configuration that supports the current behavior and the suggested behavior. In addition, an audit trail for the completing and in-completing of data sets in data entry module will help in tracking changes within data sets as the available data value audit trail functionality.
Ahsante.

Yes, upon completion data fields should be disabled and reenabled on clicking incomplete. Then assessing timely submissions will be more meaningful.
Thanx.
