Need help. We are assigned by our project manager to edit all forms into read only or read/write to specific users which belong to specific security group. We tried field security maintenance but we find it very hard, i mean it will take too much time for us to edit every field of the table. We will be editing more than 100 forms and most forms consists of more than 50 fields. We tried also duplicating menus in menu maintenance, first menu - enabling readonly box and second menu - disabling readonly box , but still it will take too long . Does anybody knows some simple ways.
Below is the screenshot of the security matrix given to us.
Isn’t that easier than field security or making customizations for each one? Could you duplicate and manipulate the menu items with DMT? (Clearly in test first)
And I just read that you were already trying the read only… Oops. But anyways, see if you can use DMT to make it faster.
FWIW - you don’t have to make use the original menu structure for your groups.
For example,
Don’t make all the menus for the yellow groups, when only 3 of them are to be used.
Lots of menus are duplicated. So unless users are so used to finding the menu items in a certain folder path, just make a few top level menus, with all the required menu items in 1 or 2 sub menus.
@Moreno.Mauricio - It’s all located in the Ice.Menu table. Create a BAQ to show the menu structure. Then sort by ParentMenuID. Lots of good info is in that table!
