cell lock in TM1 workflow

Post by trinhpv_1989 »

My TM1 Workflow have a problem with Viewer and what I have to make is that: user A complete the data input in his task then submit to user for review and approve. After submission, user A should have only read authority to the submitted data. Then user B will review the data and then approve.
Please help me ! thanksss

Are you talking about Contributor or about TM1 Workflow?
- If Contributor then this behavior is automatic.
- If TM1 Workflow then the act of "submission" will remove the task from the user's task navigation drop-down but there is no link to security and you have to build that yourself either with a rule that references the task status cube (watch out for the '@' delimiter used by workflow, if really messes with rules) or modify the TI process that is triggered on submit action to also make security read from write.

If you are just starting out then customizing by building security into TM1 Workflow is going to be too much to ask I think.

There is nothing happened to the cell security after submitting in TM1 workflow. If you really want to do such control in TM1 workflow, you have 2 options:

1. Locate the TIs which used by TM1 workflow and amend that.

2. Use rule to control the access associated with the workflow status control cube.

I would direct you to the request for assistance guidelines. Until you prove that you have made some demonstrated effort beyond asking for someone to do it for you then I am certainly not going to assist you and I would be surprised if others felt any different.
