I've created a version tracking that will show all the edited document inside view. What if I want to make all document be draft at the same time, and during that, document can't be edit. And after I click save, all draft document will be saved at the same time.

Edit 1

I have one more question when I do version tracking, how can I make all response document cannot be edit? only current document can be edit?

UPDATE QUESTION

  1. Currently, I am using version tracking to show all list with all edit document. So for now, every time I click EDIT, it will show all history of updated.

  2. So I want create a situation where I have 2 edit option which is EDIT and PC Specification. I want to set PC Specification after edit document, it updated all history under version tracking, but for EDIT I don't want it update under version tracking. Because, for EDIT function, it only for edit one or two information BUT for PC Specification, it is to update all information. For example, I have 3 documents inside the "Computer" view. view

  3. When I open one document, it will show document details. On top menu, I have two buttons which are Edit and Close Windows. So can I add one more toolbar? Which is PC Spec as below? pcspec

  4. So I will click the PC Spec button on the toolbar then the documents will open as a new document with same document information. Same as edit function. After I click save, it overwrite document + show edit history

  5. For another situation where I click EDIT, same as PC Spec but after I click save, it overwrite document only. edit

  6. As shown below, the history is when document edit using PC Spec only. update

  7. Another question, I have "Archived" view. How can I show only history of document inside "Archived" view?

Hope you guys can understand this. Please ask me anything if you not understand. Any help will be appreciated. Thanks! :)

Regarding your second question, to make all response documents non-editable, you will have to

  • Give your regular users Author access instead of Editor access in the database's Access Control List and assign them a role, which I'll call "AppUsers".
  • Give yourself and anyone else who will be responsible for managing the app a role which I'll call "AppAdmins".

  • Add a hidden computed field with type "Authors" to the form and set the initial value formula to

    @If(@IsResponseDoc;"[AppAdmins]";"[AppUsers]":"[AppAdmins]")

  • Note that this will not have any effect on existing documents until you refresh and re-save them.

Then, you're going to have to hope that automatic versioning refreshes the documents. I'm not sure if it does or does not. If it does not, then you're probably going to have to give up on using the native versioning and write your own version using LotusScript. As I recall, that's what was done in the standard Lotus document library template, because the native versioning is pretty limited in what it can do.

As for your first question, I'm sorry but I really don't understand what you're asking. I can't tell in some parts whether you are telling us what you have already done, or what you want to do. Here on StackOverflow, the best way to get useful answers is to show us very clearly what you have tried, tell us what happens, and tell us what you thought should have happened instead. This is a place for helping you fix your code, not a place to get tutorials that amount to explicit instructions on how to write your code in the first place.
