Read only columns in Planning Webform

Hi All,
I have build a form with Period (months jan, feb and Mar) and members of Custom called Type dimension in Columns.
The members in Type dimension I have selelcted is Type1, Type1 Adj, Type2,Type2 Adj.
My requirement is that I want to show Type1 and Type2 Columns as READ ONLY where the users should not enter any data in those two coulmns.
Is there any way to achieve this requirement. I am using Planning 11.1.2.2 version.
Any suggestions would be appreciated.
Thanks in Advance

Hi,
Please follow the below steps to make particular columns as read-only in Hyperion 11.1.2.2.
1) Open the form in Edit mode
2) Click on the Layout tab, once layout tab is opened. Please click on the below Column which you want to make as "Read-only" (A, B, C etc), if you have three columns then you could see A, B and C.
Note: Mouse Cursors are very sensitive in latest version, if you click on the right place only, you will get the required proprieties, otherwise it wont show any properties.
In this example, am going to make Column B as read only. Exactly move the cursor on "B" and click, in the right hand side, you could see lot of properities, click on "Segment Properties" and under that option as "Read only", select that check box to make column as read only.
Thanks,
Prakash

Read only column in tabular form

There is a not null column ( say SEQ) in a tabular form that is getting an auto value from other process. 2 more columns need user input on each row.I need to make this column(SEQ) as read only.
If I make this column (SEQ) as standard report column then when I submit the newly added row , I always get ORA-20001 error- can not insert NULL into SEQ.. even though I can see there is a value there. Switch ithe column back to text field, the insert went just fine .
How do you solve this read only column issue ?
Thanks a bunch for your help.
Tai

thank you for your reply.
Nope, SEQ is not the first column. Primary Key is and I leave the pK alone.
When I press ADDROW button , tabular form is like the following: ( table alreay has 2 rows), I auto populate SEQ column and I like to make this SEQ column display only.
-- represents checkbox
PK      SEQ      col1           col2
--     1     890          test1
--     2     675          test2
--     3

The error message is very clear(inserting to readonly column). Are you inserting data to Identity or calculated column

Read Only Columns

Hi,
We have designed a update METADATE type custom integrator to download, update and re-upload data to Oracle Apps. As a part of the integrator we are displaying few extra columns for the end users viewing purpose. The client want us to make such view only columns as 'READ ONLY' and prevent any changes to them. They want such columns to either be greyed out or protected in order to prevent any changes. Is it possible to achieve this using WebADI? We tried updating the READ_ONLY_FLAG column in the table bne_interface_cols_b but it doesn't work as expected. This set-up allows the end user to update/make changes to the column in the excel sheet and throws an error only when the sheet is uploaded, not before that.
Any suggestions/help is appreciated. We are on R11i.
Thanks,
Nitin jain

As suggested, an update statement like below will address the issue in R11i:
update bne_layout_cols
set style = 'mso-protection:locked;'
where application_id = <>
and interface_code = <>
and sequence_num in <>;

NULL values are inserted into interface table for read only columns

Hi, I developed a custom Integrator where some of the columns has to be displayed as read only in the layout. I am using SQL content to populate the data. When I upload the data NULL values are inserted into table interface? Is there any work around for this?
Thanks
Edited by: user593879 on Jan 12, 2010 7:21 PM

Doesn't WebADI drive you insane at times?
I must say, when it's all working it looks great and it is very user friendly (end-user that is, NOT for developers!) but before you get to that stage… please please Oracle invest some time making Web ADI a bit more logical an coherent, get the obvious bugs out, please let us not have to update BNE tables anymore to get things done.
Anyway, I sorted this one out by setting the Width to zero (0) in the Layout. HTH.

Read only Sub Project Plans checking out in EPM

Hi all,
Has anyone working on Project Server come accross an issue where sub project plans inserted as 'Read Only' in a master Plan, check out and therefore prevent other access? Working on Project Server 2010 with Project 2010 SP2
clients.
The strange thing is that its not every single plan in a master that performs in this manner.
Has anyone seen this behaviour and does anyone know any fixes?
Thanks,
-CL.

We've always had security on, the only thing that changed was my understanding of how we were doing security.
Before, I had written a custom UserCC that always returned the same name, after I used the standard UserCC. I had the same results both time.
The cause of my error message is "MDS repository may be configured incorrectly", which I kind of figured, but there's nothing to point me to diagnose how it is incorrectly configured or how to fix it.

How to give planners read only access to Planning cube for ad-hoc analysis?

Hi Everyone,
I am trying to issue smartview reports to the planners. Most of the reports are coming off Essbase (reporting) application. However, we have to generate one report from planning server because of the text fields. Currently, on planning server, planners have access only to the forms. They dont have access to the planning cube. But to make them able to refresh this report, we need to give them access to the planning cube.
But we dont want them to do ad-hoc data write on planning cube. So my question goes like this - Is there a way for planners to have write access on the web forms but only read access to the cube through samrtview ??

The access permissions will match between planning and smart view if a planning connection is used.
Cheers

Editable AdvancedDataGrid / Read-only SummaryRow

tl;dr - How do I have read-only SummaryFields for an editable column in the AdvancedDataGrid?
I have an AdvancedDataGrid based on flat data in a GroupingCollection that groups on one field (named "day"). There are 2 known read-only columns, and N additional columns (N is equal for all rows in the grid). My goal is to have the N additional columns editable (numeric) with a read-only SummaryRow at the group level for those columns.
I can display everything properly, but I cannot figure out how to make the SummaryRow read-only.
AdvancedDataGrid and AdvancedDataGridColumn seems to the be only classes that allow you to toggle an "editable" flag.
When I use an AdvancedDataGridRendererProvider, my custom Label-based renderer is called, but I do not know which column it is being called for, so even though I have access to the child data, I do not know which fields in the children to summarize and display in the text field of the label.
Data is in an ArrayCollection where each item (row) has the following format:
     "day": 1,
     "hour": "Shift 1",
     "Skill0": 4,
     "Skill1": 8,
     "Skill2": 15,
     "Skill3": 16,
     "Skill4": 23,
     "Skill5": 42
where "day" is the column the grouping occurs on, "day" and "hour" are displayed as read-only fixed columns, and the "SkillN" fields are displayed as editable columns.
I hope I am missing some simple bit of information here. I have spent many hours on this!
Am I approaching the solution wrong? Hints and advice are appreciated!
Thanks,
Matt

Thank you so much, Sameer. Unfortunately, I have not been able to get this working. I am using SDK 3.5 in Flex Builder 3.
Below is a sample app that shows the "editable" property not working properly. Here is a screenshot of the result showing that the summary row is editable:

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,

Planning Webform IN Read Only Mode

Hi,
All the webforms that i created in Planning 11.1 is in read Only mode. Non of the webforms have"Make Read Only" Checked nor the members used are Dynamic calc. I tried logging in using admin but that not solve the issue either. I can send in the data using excell add in but not throught planning. I dont see any more option to adjust this.

Hi,
Another thing to check is the plan type you have set the form against and the source plan type for the account member on the form.
For example if you have a form set against plan type 1 and the account on the form has a source plan type of plan type2 then the form will be read only.

How to make a cell/column read only

HI All,
Is there any way to make a specific cell read only with in a specific data form?
Similarly is there any way to make whole column read only inside a specific data form?
I don't want to make changes in my dimension member (e.g Dynamic Calc), i want to make these changes at data form level because, these cell/column are read only at one form but on some other data form they are editable/enterable

If you want to make a column read only then have a look at asymettric columns in the planning admin doc, if you use them then you can make one of the columns read only.
If you want a make one cell read only then one method could be to use javascript, you could add an extra member which is dynamic calc and point to the original member with a formula but it doesn't sound like you want to do that.
Cheers

Strange Issue: Hyperion Planning forms becomes read-only and data is wiped out: 11.1.2.2

Hi,
Let me start by saying that I am not new to Hyperion Planning. We are experience a weird issue in our System Test. We notice that some (NOT ALL) of our webforms turn into readonly webforms; all the cells on the form at greyed out. This is inspite of the fact that the read-only checkbox is unchecked on the form as well as security is fine on all dimensions ; basically all the cells on the form are valid combinations.
Still the form become readonly and all the data in that form is wiped-out. this happened only for two web forms so far. We are running bunch of calcs(none of the calcs have cleardata command). we are not sure why is this happening. this might be some bug in the product... not sure. has anyone seen this behaviour before ?
please let me know.
pk

Please Ignore this question. This happened because someone in my team had added an member below a level 0 entity.

ALV: columns in read-only mode look like editable columns in edit mode

Hi,
My application contains an ALV table which should be toggled between display and edit mode like the rest of the fields.
The evident solution was to use
if_salv_wd_table_settings~set_read_only( abap_true or abap_false)
However, unlike the rest of the fields, when the application changes into display mode and the fields get grey like in any SAP application, the columns in the table which were editable remain white, and those which were not editable and thus grey, get now white, too, instead of the other way round. So it will look to the normal user, as if now all columns would be editable!
Of course, he would realize that they are not when he tries to edit them, but this is irritating.
See following link with screenshots (only active for 3 weeks from now on):
[Link to my webmail space/SDN: .|https://businesswebmail.telekom.at/filestorage/MzYxMTk1OTMx/]
I have looked
through my books ("Einstieg in Web Dynpro for ABAP", "Praxisbuch Webdynpro for ABAP", ...)
through the wiki for Webdynpro for ABAP here in SDN as well as through this forum (by searching with "ALV edit")
through the notes in BC-WD-CMP-ALV
but could not find any solution. Most tables in those PDF articles found here in the WD4A wiki also show white cells although they are probabliy in read-only mode (e.g. the imitation of the SE16N browser article).
The attributes to the LO_CELL_EDITOR for both Inputfields and textview columns contain exactly the same values when toggling between display and edit mode (read-only in table settings), so also no chance to change here anything.
Also changing the cell design is not a solution as there is no design that looks like grey for not editable according to WDUI_TABLE_CELL_DESIGN ([SAP Help - WDUI_TABLE_CELL_DESIGN|http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw2004s/helpdata/en/56/5e9041d3c72e7be10000000a1550b0/frameset.htm].
I do not know if I have made an error, as this is my 3rd Web Dynpro (after the first 2 of the introduction book), or SAP is really inconsistent in User interface between "normal" fields and ALV table fields.
Can you please help me?
Thanks in advance,
Erlend

Hi,
In my application aslo, i have 30 columns out of which 10 are input fields. But, i'm showing the table as ABAP_TRUE incase of Non-editable otherwise to abap_false. Now i'm getting everything as in WHITE cells.
Do you want to show it is Grey mode with Non-editable feature. Is that so.
How many columns are there which has Input fields.
Get the column references.
Now, based on the mode of display create the object as Input or Textview field.
For that column -
If mode eq 'D'.
Create an object for Textview(cl_salv_wd_uie_text_view)
else.
Create an Object for Inputfield(cl_salv_wd_uie_input_field)
endif.
The Append row is a standard button or custom one on ALV toolbar.
Do you want to hide the toolbar or just disable these buttons.
If you want to hide the toolbar then refer my wiki -

Read only set for few rows of a column in a table (not ALV)

Hi Gurus,
I have a table with multiple rows and columns. Under a particular column, I have to make few rows as read only, few rows as editable based on a coondition. How can I achieve this. I know how to make the whole column as editable or read only. But I'm not able to achieve few rows in a particular column as editable and few read only. Please give me more detail code.
Appreciate your help.
Regards,
David.

Hello,
That you can achieve by creating an attribute isReadOnly of type WDY_BOOLEAN in the context node that you bind to the TABLE. And set isReadOnly attribute based on your condition whether to set readonly or editable for all the context elements.
And in the layout view, for the column which has to be made readOnly or editable, bind the property readOnly to the context attribute isReadOnly.
When you run application, you will see the column as readOnly if the attribute was set to true and editable if it was set to false.
Hope this helps!
Regards,
Srilatha
