Block "Refresh" function during the calculation

Question

Hello @all,
is it possible to block the refresh function, or smart view as a whole, while calc script is running?
Because the user may see incorrectly data while for example the allocation script is running.
I using Essbase ans Smart View 11.1.1.3.
Many thanks,
Ilias

look up the command Alter application disable commands

Prevent all requests to databases in the application, including non-data-specific requests, such as viewing database information or changing database settings. All users are affected, including other administrators. Administrators are affected by this setting as a safety mechanism to prevent accidental updates to databases during maintenance operations. This setting remains in effect only for the duration of your session. The setting takes effect immediately, and affects users who are currently logged in, as well as users who log in later during your session.
Caution!
If performing maintenance operations that require disabling commands, you must make those maintenance operations within the same session and the same script as the one in which commands were disabled.
After make sure you enable them. Also note, you may need to also logout all users on the application as well
