Hiding Links on a Screen

[Former Member]

Hi Experts,

We are trying to customise the ECM application in MSS. On the compenstion planning screen, there is a link called "Show Additional Information". I would like to hide/remove this link. Any idea on how I can do that?

Thanks

Hi,

You can hide that link from the Portal iview. Preview the iview and click ctrl + right mouse click. It will open the iview personalization. Set the invisible option for the link you want to hide.

Ramanpreet,

Why is that you want to change the source code to hide the links and not use personalization? I think those links are being dynamically displayed some where in the XSS-Util component. I cannot exactly tell you where those links are coming from since I dont have the source code to look at.

Hi Laxmi,

Thanks for your replies. Is there any option other than the Personalise option? I would like to do it in the code instead. I did check out the DC. But in there I do not find any place where this link could be coming from. Could it be FPM or something?

Any help is greatly appreciated.

Thanks

Hi,

Did you check in your wdDoModify method of the view because it might have been created at runtime.

Hi Murtuza,

I did check wdDoModify of the view. It is not coming from there. I just want ti be sure I am explaining properly. If you go to ESS screens, it shows you steps on the top. Like Step 2 is Review, then submit. So, it shows 4 steps to complete a process. Below those steps, it is showing these links. It shows like 'Show Additional Information'. "Show statistics" etc.

Thanks

You can transport the portal iview object too. Make your changes in the iview, add the iview to a transport and move it to the next environment.

Other option if, you will have to go to that MSS dc and modify the dc to hide the link.

Hi Laxmi,

Thanks for replying to my question. Is there any other way to hide this link other than the personalisation? I would like to do some thing which is transportable and I do not have to repeat in every environment individually.

Thanks again
