Lock Dimension Members

You can lock dimension members to prevent modification. To lock dimensions, select dimension members to open the Member Selector pane. Move the selected member to the Mapped Members area by clicking the forward arrow. If a dimension is locked, member selections cannot be modified by regular users with read-only access.

Click the Lock checkbox and select an option:

  • Selected - The report returns the members selected.

  • Children - The report returns the first level children of the selected members.

  • All Children - The report returns all of the descendants of the selected members.

  • Sel+Children - The report returns the selected members and the first level children of the selected members.

  • Sel+AllChildren - The report returns the selected members and all of the descendants of the selected members.

  • Leaves - The report returns the posting levels below the selected members.

  • Sel+Leaves - The report returns the selected members and the posting levels below the selected members.

  • Sel+Parents - The report returns the selected members and the summary levels above the selected members.

The option selected (i.e. Leaves, Children, etc.) also applies to substitution variables used. 

Note:
Drag and drop members above to place them in the proper order.
