Andrea,
You can do this either by using forms personalisations or by using the CUSTOM Library. Forms personalisations is a technology that is available by default from 11.5.10, and from 11.5.7 by applying some patches.
What you do is define a new function for the form you want to customise and use this new function in the menu for the responsibility in question.
Then you use either of the two methods mentioned above to alter the item attributes of the items in question to non-alterable. I suggest you take a look at the Applications Developer's Guide (available for download from OTN) for details on how to use the CUSTOM Library and forms personalisations and on what item attribute to alter.

Thank you Aleksander and Roel for your responses. Appreciate it. We are on 11.5.9 and client wants to know if we can do it without customizing the custom.pll.i can I make the bank name and number grayed out for a responsibility. Even the tab bank account in supplier window can be displayed off.My approach is creating a new menu and exclude the bank account tab. but I could not find what is the submenu name or the function name. Can you please help?
Thanks,
Andrea.

Hi Andrea,
sorry, you can use:
- or Custom.pll
- or Forms Personalization (if you have 11.5.10)
- (or you can modify the whole screen in Forms-Builder, I would not recommend that for such a small change).
HTH,
Roel Hogendoorn
