All data input only at leaf level in Contributor

[Paul-TM1]

Hi all,
Is there a parameter that would not allow data input at consolidation level in Contributor? How can this be achieved?

Thanks,
Luther.

Aren't you transitioning to more modern IBM PA / TM1 clients that will be supported going forward by IBM?
In 2 months time support will stop for a number of older TM1 clients.

Hi Wim,
We are transitioning from Contributor to PAW next month. In between, I want to expose the PAW views (input screens) to all the users for a month. This will give us time to fix the issues and fully upgrade. So, technically, we will be using 2.0.9.2 for a month and Contributor is still present.
We want to allow data input at the lowest (leaf) level only. There is a parameter that did not allow data input at consolidated level and cant find it now. Don't remember if it's ProportionSpreadToZeroCells. This works only if the leaves are zero. So, the confusion.

Thanks,
Paul.

In PA, you'll find that setting in the }Capabilities cube, the specific item is "Consolidation TypeIn Spreading" and you'd want DENY for the EXECUTE permission.

That helps. Thanks Ascheevel!
