You can specify whether a form allows querying or editing of specific attributes by setting these flags for individual view object attributes in the ADF Business Components model project:
You can prevent the displayed attribute from participating in a query that the user initiates on the form in find mode. Open the view object editor and unselect Queriable in the attribute's View Attribute panel.
You can prevent the user from editing displayed attributes. Open the view object editor and select Never Updateable in the attribute's View Attribute panel.
When the user attempts to edit an attribute value for an attribute that the ADF Business Components model project defines as not queriable or not updateable, they will receive an error message stating that the attribute is not updateable and the original value of the attribute will be redisplayed.
