To make the form read-only in Dynamics 365 you have 3 options: changing record status to Inactive, Business rule, JavaScript.

For the sake of this post, I will take the example of the cases subgrid related to an account record. Let's take the scenario, where an action is done on the client side that adds a case related to the account record. Therefore, the sub-grid should be automatically refreshed to reflect the updated list of cases. In order to do this, a JavaScript function should call the refresh() in order to refresh the subgrid and display the expected result. function refreshSubGrid(context) { var formContext = context.getFormContext();
