Removing Members from Excel Add-in (or Smartview) Member Selection Options

The users of my system have write access to some scenarios, read access to others, and no access to the rest. I would like the Scenarios for which the users have no access to not show up in the member selection options in Excel Add-in (similar to how they will not show up in Forms). Our security settings obviously prevent them from seeing the data itself, but we don't want them to see certain Scenarios at all (even the member names). We've dealt with this issue in Financial Reporting by manually specifying what the POV options are, but we can't do the same with Excel Add-in or Smartview.
Is this possible, or are these Add-ins just not smart enough to interpret the security?

I sugget you look at metaread filters. they would prevent users from seeing members they don't have access to (one exception is they might see parents they don't have access to if they are required to navigate to the hierarchy they do have access to

  • Add/Remove members from groups

    Does anyone have a sample ldif entry to add/remove members from groups?

    I am not exactly getting what you said here.
    Basically if your intention is to rename RDN and reflect the changes in the group membership, you have to do totally 2 operations:
    1) update your uid on the user entries.
    2) update your membership on the group entry: remove the uid first, then add it:
    updateM.ldif
    dn: cn=groupA,ou=groups,ou=xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
    changetype: modify
    delete: uniqueMember
    uniqueMember: uid=1111,ou=people,ou=xxxxxxxx
    add: uniqueMember
    uniquMember: uid=zz1111,ou=people,ou=xxxxxxx
    save it
    run:
    ldapmodify -v -D xxx -w xxx -h xxx -p xxx -f <PATH>/updateM.ldif

  • Can't add or remove members from an exchange 2010 distribution group

    Hello.
    i have exchange 2010 SP1. When i connect to the server with administrator login in the EMC, i can't add or remove members from distribution group. I don t understand why because i am admin. I have this error : "You
    do not have sufficient permissions. This operation can be performed by a group leader"
    how i can change this. I wan t only admin can edit members group
    hanks for help

    Hi,
    If you have checked the permission, I suggest you checking the Membership Approval configuration.
    1. Closed the option “owner approval is required to join the group”
    2. Open the option “anyone can leave this group without being approved by the group owners”
    To do this, follow the details at

  • HP ePrint from excel add-in: Error while getting driver name for printer

    Trying to use add-in for ePrint from excel/word I get, "error while getting driver name for printer \\...HP DesignJet 800PS 42 by HP," with an option to select "OK" and that same message repeats with each printer in our network, and then it doesn't allow me to print using the add-in. However, I can print normally to HP Go Web, open up Print and Share,  then print it from there. This happens with excel and word. I have Office Suite 2007.

    Hello modameister,
    Sorry you are having issues with this printer and the ePrint add-on.  There are a couple of questions I would like you to answer please.
    1.  What operating system are you using? (XP,VISTA,7,MAC OS X)
    2.  What and how much data are you trying to print?
    3.  Have you tried to copy and paste the data into a different application or tried using the snip it tool?
    4.  Are you receiving any .dll errors (mscms.dll)
    Thanks
    If I have solved your issue, please feel free to provide kudos and make sure you mark this thread as solution provided!

  • Swagbucks keeps showing up even after I removed it from the Add-Ons.

    I installed the Swagbucks Toolbar & it took over my iGoogle search engine for FireFox. Iwent to the Add-Ons & Extensions & removed the Swagbucks/Conduit Add-Ons BUT it is not really gone. Everytime I try to go to Goolge the Swagbucks web-site pops up. I NEED to know how to COMPLETELY remove Swagbucks from my FIreFox..??..
    I would like to add that my iGoogle web-page will not show my Gadgets since the Swagbucks ha taken over.

    I just figured this one out and it worked for Firefox 5.0. First, I removed everything from the extensions/add-ons that had to do with Swagbucks. Then, in the toolbar search bar itself, I used the drop down menu next to the Swagbucks logo and selected managed search engines; swagbucks; then selected remove. It seems to have worked, since I've restarted and it has not come back yet.

  • Can you remove members from the outline using ESSCMD?

    The product line dimension in my cube looks something like this:Product Line Product 1 Product 2 Service Parts Part 1 Part 2 etc.I have an automated script which builds the product line dimension, loads a new data set, and does a CALC ALL to roll up Part 1, Part 2, etc., into Service Parts. Once that rollup has occurred, I want to remove Part 1, Part 2, etc., from the outline, but I have not found a way to do that from ESSCMD. Is there a way I can automate the removal of members from a dimension?Any hints or suggestions are greatly appreciated.-jimb

    You could create a new dimension build file for your products dimension but only down to the service parts level. then use a load rule with the remove unspecified box checked on the Dimension build setting tab. This shold cause a restructure of the database, hopefully your product dimension is sparse.Good LuckGlenn UrbanDirector of consultingVision BIA, LLC630.873.3165

  • SmartView member selection problem

    Hi,
    I am facing an issue in Smartview. I am using SmartView 11.1.2.1. I am unsure if this is how it actually works or if it is an issue.
    Say, I have the following hierarchy:
    A has a child B and B has a child C
    And if the user has access to only A and C, when I manually drill down by double clicking on A, I get C. But if I select A and choose 'Member Selection', I do not see member C,under A, for selection.
    Is this a known issue ??
    Please help.
    Thanks.

    This would be expected behavior for a design like this. At a point in time your security requirements are such that it would be overly intensive for Smart View to work as you are asking it to.
    Either grant read access to B or understand you will have the issue you have illustrated.

  • Remove underscore from buttons, add Alt text

    Hi,
    Thanks in advance for your help. I am having more problems with the RH's Govt template. The forward and back buttons would not appear, so I have created my own buttons and incorporated into my user guide. However, there is an underscore appearing in between my buttons (it's not on my images). If I remove this underscore from the Topic (default) page of the template, it removes one of my buttons. My developer can't figure this one out either.
    Also, when I add the Alt text into the HTML code, it does not appear when I generate the file. Here's where I am with this now:
    RH's Back/next does not work, so I went into the Layout and added my own buttons, which appear here on the Topic (default) page of the template. What are all the underscores?
    2.  This is the generated User Guide - any attempt to remove this underscore will delete the button on the right.
    3.  This is my coding. You see that I have the Alt text in the coding, however, it does not appear in the generated user guide. Also, I don't see anything resembling an underscore in the coding.

    William,
    Thanks for your response. My developer and I incorporated the above into the HTML source code and it removed the right arrow button. Any time we make a change to this particular section of code, it deletes the right arrow button. Sheesh. The only workaround was to do all code editing in Notepad and then paste it back into RH again. We have to do this every time. It's annoying. So having done this in Notepad, the underscore is gone, but the Alt tags still don't appear.
    This is where we are now with the code:
    <td><a href="javascript:history.go(-1)" style="text-decoration:none;"> <img src="BSBack.png" alt="Back"
          style="visibility: visible;"
          width="60" height="31"
          border="0" /> </a><?rh-msp-bs-back-start
           id="browseSeqBack" widgettype="browsesequence"
           class="wBSBackButton" ?>
          <a href="javascript:history.go(+1)"> <img src="BSNext.png" alt="Forward"
          style="visibility: visible;"
          width="60" height="31"
          border="0" /> </a><?rh-msp-bs-back-start
           id="browseSeqNext" widgettype="browsesequence"
           class="wBSBackButton" ?></td>
    Also, this has caused a new problem: when I save (generate) this to the server and test it , every time I click on a different topic, 'Show' flashes on and off on the screen and the arrow buttons shift right, then back left. Now, we initially moved the arrows to a different location in the Theme2_Government template. Does that have anything to do with this goofy flashing and movement?
    Thanks again,
    Pam

  • Issue in connecting to Essbase from excel add-in. 9.3.1

    Hi Experts,
    User has 2 servers, eg. a and b,
    he is able to connect a and b through laptop - no issues,
    but from desktop, he is able to connect only to a and not to be.
    Other users from their desktop are able to connect to a and b using the same userid , password
    Observations/suggestions ;
    - Checked that 1423 port is being displayed for server a but not for b on his machine.
    - NetDelay and NetRetry counts are 1000 and 1500 respectively.
    - Suggested the customer to add
    AGENTPORT 1423
    SERVERPORTBEGIN 32768
    SERVERPORTEND 32968
    PORTINC 1
    in essbase.cfg file - but still issue persists.
    the issue is machine specific.
    Its urgent. Please suggest/advise.

    There is no help here for issues with VirtualBox.
    You need to direct all your inquiries related to installation, configuration, and usage of client environments you might install into it at the web site where you found the VirtualBox software.
    You were directed there in your OTN thread from three days earlier:
    EBS installation on Virtual machine node
    so you need to go back there for assistance.

  • Finding shared members with Excel Add-In

    My user is using the "find" feature in the add-in to determine where a particular member resides. This member is found 2 places in the outline (the original and the shared member). The add-in finds the first occurrence, but does not find the second one using the "find next" button. Is this a bug or is there something we are doing incorrectly? Any help is appreciated. Thanks.

    I, too, would recommend rebuilding the workbook.. Excel workbooks can get some funny behaviors, particularly if they contain VBA code. VBA in Excel stays 'semi-compiled' and never really clears itself out and a bunch of phantom references remain (and are completely hidden). I have seen some very strange behavior cleaned up by rebuilding the workbook..
    My old friend, Excel MVP Rob Bovey, has a utility specifically built to rebuild workbooks at http://www.appspro.com/Utilities/Utilities.htm.

  • Restricting members in Planning Webform depending on the member selection

    Hi Guru's
    Is there a way in the planning webform, to restrict members showing in the form, for example, I have Entity, Employee, Position. Depending on the entity selection I need to display on the form related to that entity. Any help will be greatly appreciated.

    Im not sure there is any simple way to get dynamic row selection based on what is selected in the page.
    If I were designing the form based on what you have stated, I would probably stick both Account and Year in the page, and the 400 products in rows. This would require the user to select the different combinations of Year / Account, but would mean only 12 columns (instead of 72).
    Alternatively you could stick Account in rows too - meaning 800 rows, but less combinations to select in Page....all depends what is deemed acceptable to the user.
    Probably other approaches that may be better than above (put Product in the Page for fun!!)
    Thanks

  • Removing keyword from multiple images at the same time

    None of the documented methods seem to work for me.
    1     Select all the images. Go to Metadata > Remove Keyword [my keyword] - the keyword is only removed from the image that is selected in the batch - i.e the one that has the yellow border round it to show it's the active image.
    2     Select all the images, enter [my keyword] in the Add Keyword field when Keyword Controls is visible and press Shift + Enter - does the same thing as 1 above (removes it from the active image only).
    3     Select all the images, Shift Click on the keyword that I have in my Keyword Controls in the Control Bar - does the same things as 1 above.
    So all these methods, which are supposed to work, do not work for me. The removal of the keyword is only applied to the image that has the yellow border showing it to be the currently active image in the selected batch - the remaining selected imaged still retain the keyword. I can remove it "one at a a time" but it would be great if I could find a solution as to why this isn't working.
    Any ideas?
    If it helps, I'm running Aperture 3.1.3 in OS X 10.6.8.
    thanks
    Alan

    Based on the frequency with which this trips up users, the Aperture team is going to have to add a much stronger visual indication that "Primary Only" is active.  Marching ants, anyone?  Or a pink selection marquee?
    At least in the Viewer when multiple Images are selected the thin white selection marquee is dropped when Primary Only is active.  There is no such change in the Browser.
