Making a transaction read-only for a particular user status

Hello,
I have a requirement wherein I need to make an opportunity read-only if it is saved with the user status set to 'Lost'. I tried setting the 'Forbidden' flag for 'Change Document' for this status but the problem is that the transaction gets locked even before saving it.
I have a 'Reason' field where I have dropdown values for the 'Lost' status. But when I try to select a reason, error message appears as: 'no changes possible in document'.
Is it possible via configuration to have the transaction locked only after it is saved with user status 'Lost' and not immediately on setting the status?
Regards,
Aditya Mishra

2 ways to achieve it...
1. the document editing can be controlled based on its status i.e. standard auth objects exist to control so that user is not able to make changes with this status.
2. implement BADI CRM_ORDER_AUTH_CHECK
put your logic to check the document status and accordingly reutrn FALSE if you do not want user to open it in edit mode.
hope this helps.

Making Marketing Calendar Read only for Trade Promotion

Hi,
We are trying to use Marketing Calendar in CRM 7.0 to view the trade promotions. But the client wants the Marketting Calendar to be read only view. The end users should not be able to drag the TPs to extend the date. Also they should not be able to create, copy or delete the TPs. These end users will be able to create TPs when going through the TP link.
Please advise how can I achieve this.
Regards
Kavitha

Hi Kavitha,
This feature in introduced in the new Integrated Marketing Calendar. See if you can use it.

Read Only for Non Trusted Users

Hi everyone:
Is it possible to forbid non trusted (or non certified) users for modifying the pdf (I'm interested in signing protection particularly) but allowing them to open the pdf in READ ONLY mode?
I'm wondering how to do it using Adobe Acrobat Professional 8 (info with Adobe Acrobat Pro X will be also appreciated) and opening the pdfs in their Reader corresponding versions (managing non trusted users as READ ONLY users).
Thanks for your time
Regards,
Javier

Thanks Bill:
I've been trying what you said, and is possible to "lock" the pdf so it's in read only mode via password (using Adobe Acrobat X). Is it possible to do the same with certificates? As far as I have seen, if you use certificates policies, you use the certificate to encrypt the document but then, non certified users are not allowed to access the pdf. I'm really interested in using certification restrictions but being able to access the pdf: I want to simulate the READ ONLY MODE for everybody and the WRITE mode for certified users.
Using this kind of restrictions, the only problem that I see (for end users) is that they should disable secure settings before editing / signing (this two options appear disabled with this method). Is it possible to get them available and open the "enter password" dialog when clicking them, not managing the security properties?
Thanks for your time

User Defined Fields are read-only for a specific user

I have a user that has lost her ability to edit user defined fields. They are all grayed-out for all UDFs, all document types. Other users have access to these fields. I've even copied the authorizations from a user not experiencing the problem, but with no positive results. Anyone have any thoughts on this?
We are on SBO 8.8 PL 16

Hi Randy......
This might be the Authorisation issue......
Please check properly whether you have given Full authorisation for Form Setting to such user or not and check by enabling it through Form Setting

Dynamically making read only for a field in get_data(CL_EHHSS_INC_BINFA_UI_FRM)

Hi Experts,
I am making read only for a field based on condition in get_data method of class CL_EHHSS_INC_BINFA_UI_FRM.
But it is not working. Pls find the code for the same.
LOOP AT CT_FIELD_USAGE INTO lw_field WHERE NAME = 'OC_INC_TYPE'.
   lw_field-read_only = ABAP_TRUE.
   MODIFY ct_field_usage FROM lw_field TRANSPORTING read_only.
   ev_field_usage_changed = 'X'.
ENDLOOP.
Pls help me what is wrong in this coding.
Regards,
Reny Richard

Hi Richard,
Please check if   this loop is executing for the correct desired event(say on click or from the start ). & the field name specified is correct or not through debugging. And check by placing the parameter ev_field_usage_changed = 'X'. after the loop statement.
Below is a sample code for making the field read only.
field-SYMBOLS: <fs_field> like line of CT_FIELD_USAGE.
   loop at CT_FIELD_USAGE ASSIGNING <FS_FIELD>.
     case <FS_FIELD>-NAME.
     when 'OC_INC_TYPE'. " name of the field
         <FS_FIELD>-READ_ONLY = 'X'.                " ' ' for editable
     ENDCASE.
CV_FIELD_USAGE_CHANGED = abap_true.

I bought a pdf book last year and had no problem reading it for a few months then all of a sudden I could no longer open it and to this day. Any other pdf download off internet I can still open and read, except for that particular book. Operating system is Windows 7 Home Premium, Adobe Reader XI 11.0.07. When trying to open file I get msg "You did'nt login or your session has expired. Please log in to read this document for the first time". (Like I said I have read it before). So I log in but that prompts me to give the name of the file I want to export or convert to Word or something else, which is not what I want to do of course. I have not purchased any service from Adobe or Acrobat as I only need to read. Thanks for your help..

Can a Column in a Project Plan be set to Read Only for everyone except Admins

At my company the Project Server Admins create the initial project plans. We want to add a new column that will designate each task in the plan as Capital or Operational. We do not want anyone to have the ability to change these.
When the Project Managers need additional tasks on their plans they will need to copy an existing one in order to have this piece of information pre-populated on their new tasks, since we do not want them deciding what the task should be themselves and populating
the field as they create tasks.

In addition to Dale's excellent answer, I'd mention that it is possible to make a column "read-only" for certain security groups in MS Project Pro with VBA code.
That being said, I'd suggest to follow Dale's advice using a "soft" solution.
Hope this helps,

Howto make created folders/ files from one teacher, read only for other teachers?

Hello there,
as an admin @ school I was wondering how to make created folders/ files from one teacher, read only for other teachers?
- In a 2008domain, created a group "teachers"
- created a folder "teacher data" where all teachers have read/write permissions
ideal,a teacher who make's a folder in "teacher data" should be the only oen who is able to add file's to that folder and dele that folder or files. Other teachers may be able to read the content of the folder.
Is this possible to set up and how?
many thanks.
Nico.
rds

Hi Nico,
You could set the permissions below to resolve the issue:
For the root folder "teacher data": give the full control permission to CREATOR OWNER – "Subfolders and files only" and give the read/write permissions to the group "teachers"– "This folder only".

Mandy

PO from PR only for a particular document type

Dear Gurus
I want purchase orders should be raised with reference to purchase requisitions only. System should allow to make purchase orders with reference to purchase requisitions only for a particular document type only.
I have configured in OMET and assigend this in SU3, now the system is not allowing to create PO for all document types, but I want to restrict this for a particular document type only
Is there any configu change required?
Regards
Muthukumar

Hi
You can make it in MM - purchasing -> purchase orders -> define document types -> check the document type -> click on link purchase requisitions.
And in define screen layout at document level - make PR mandatory for your purchase order document type (field reference).
Thanks

All USB drives mount as read only for user

I have searched a bunch and thee results I find seem to be irrelevant to my situation. Most relate to a single USB media that is a problem and won't read or write.
On a new Arch install on a new computer (my third base system install). Running Gnome.
All USB mass storage devices mount as read only for the logged in user. Root has write permissions and I can mkdir no problem. It is not an issue with the USB drive itself as this occurs with multiple USB media (I've tested several SD cards on a reader and at least two drives, all the media works correctly on my existing installations)
I'm posting the contents of my /etc/group file in case there's an obvious error there I don't see, and my dmesg output upon plugging in the drive. User name is changed in the group file posted to "archie"
This is a single-user system.

I'm sure I'm just missing something in user management, but I can't find what.

I am also having the same problem. Root can read and write to automounted drives, but my user cannot. I've tried with a variety of drives, I am assuming they are being automounted by root instead of the logged-in user somehow. (I am running x directly, and am not using a display manager, if that has anything to do with it).
When I look at how it is mounted it is as follows:
/dev/sdc1 on /run/media/myuser/drivename type vfat (rw,nosuid,nodev,relatime,uid=1000,gid=1000,fmask=0022,dmask=0077,codepage=437,iocharset=iso8859-1,shortname=mixed,showexec,utf8,flush,errors=remount-ro,uhelper=udisks2)

Hi,
You should never try updating system table directly. That will against supporting policy by SAP.

Read Only for "Group" and "Others" via SMB

I see when Windows vista users of my OS X 10.5.8 server save a file to the server, the permissions show on the server as Read & Write for the owner and Read Only for 'Group' and 'Others'.
Is there a way I can make the OS X server always make 'Group' and 'Others' always be Read & Write?
Thanks!

It's using a shared component LOV cleverly called LOV_YN which consists of a static LOV with
1 Display=Yes, Return=Y
2 Display=No, Return=N
The settings in the LOV section on the item iteself:
Named LOV: LOV_YN
Display Extra values: No Dynamic translation: Not translated
Number of columns: 2 Display null: No
Null display value is blank as is null return value
Item was setup as a radio group and was only converted over to a select list to work around this issue. Let me know what else you need and thanks again.

Possible to make an item editable for certain users and read only for other

Is it possible to make an item editable for certain users and read only for others?
I've been able to accomplish this by taken the select statement that I used to define an authorization scheme, placing it in the Read Only condition of the item. However, I would like to simply reference the authorization scheme to utilize caching, and to help keep things cleaner for future maintenance.
Is it possible to reference an authorization scheme in an item condition similar to the way another item can be referenced by preceding it with a colon (i.e. :P1_First_Name)?

Thank you, your suggestion worked.
It would be nice on a future release of APEX if a drop-down box existed under the Ready Only section that would allow an existing Authorization Scheme to be selected or negated when applying the Read Only attribute to a form item.
