Hello All -
I am working on Embedded Planning BPC 7.4 SP 12, and AO 2.2 SP1.
I would like to understand on Data Slice, and Workstatus. My understanding is Work Status work with Data Slice to lock the data.
e.g. I have the case like this:
a) I have Input Workbook. It has the selection parameter in the workbook as follows:
- Planning Cost Center
- Fiscal Year/Quarter
- Version
- Region
b) If User A, run the workbook with:
- Planning Cost Center A
- Fiscal Year/Quarter: 003.2016
- Version: 0
- Region: UK
Then user B will not be able to change/plan the corresponding data in the workbook. User B will only be able to change/create the plan data for corresponding Cost Center if User A has finished the work, and change the work status.
The questions are:
1) How to link between data slice, and workstatus to meet this requirement?
- Should I create first the data slice e.g. Planning Cost Center, Fiscal Year/Quarter, Version, and Region, and then the workstatus? If yes, how to link the data slice to Workstatus, or how to send the value of Planning Cost Center, Fiscal Year/quarter, Version, and Region selected in the workbook/workstatus into data slice?
2) Could workstatus deliver this requirement ?
Kindly please ask your thought, and appreciate much your thought,
Many thanks,
Daniel N.
