Hi @ssk ,

Micro lessons during the course should help you with enough information and guidance to understand and apply these concepts to your project. Please revisit them in case you are struggling to make progress.

Just to recap, DCA allows us to define cell level read/write control, Selective Access allows us to define list item level control, and a role allows us to define access to model content such as modules, actions - for a group of users having common responsibilities.

Once you create 'Product Family Manager' role, you will need to set permissions for the role at each of the applicable tabs (Modules, Lists, Actions) under users menu. And then only you can expect the UX to reflect the content based on your permissions.

If you have any further difficulty, please be specific about the challenge you are facing. Happy to help.

Cheers!

Hello @ssk ,

It is a bit complicated to give you an explanation without seeing the requirements.

In terms of access, there are 3 levels:

Roles: Defined at the user tab and attributed to each user. Define access to modules.
Selective Access is given from the user tab. You have to select whether the users should have access to a given item of a list - either read or write. Remember that Write is king and will overrule the read access. Define access to lists.
DCA: The most granular way of defining an access. Works similarly to Selective Access in the terms of Write/Read and defines the access to cells.

With that in mind, and your requirements, would you be able to resolve it? Otherwise, can you please let us know more?

Thank you guys....

Can u please check my work and let me know why my landing dashboard is still blank...

Hello @ssk ,

There is no landing page provided and it is not needed to provide the access. That was a functionality of the old UX in order to provide a landing page based on users. Currently we are working from new UX.

Cheers!

New UX Filtering for Hierarchy sibling
I have A6 as the parent list and two sibling lists: A6.5 and A7. The A7 list includes an attribute that maps to A6.5. In the UX, the user will select A6.5 using a content selector, and the grid (dimensioned by A7) should display only the A7 items associated with that selected A6.5. Since the selector is a page context and…
A reminder of Bulk Copy - Current year to Prior year version for YoY analysis
A quick reminder of the Bulk Copy functionality.

Use case: copy a version (RF1) into a prior year version (PY RF1) using a versions list to allow for year-on-year…
