Posted on by ALAhmed 916

Hello,

I have an entity and i want to use it only for update  not for adding new data(Blocking the insertion way). 

Is there à way to do that ?

Many thank in advance.

    Hey Alex,

    Did you try through security configuration? Creating a privilege for that with read and update granted.

    You can see a few OOD examples in the privileges.

    E.g. BudgetRegisterEntryEntityView

    BudgetRegisterEntryEntityMaintain

    Hi Alex,

    While creating data entity there will be two privileges created by default. One with view access and other with maintain access - You can set the Update access under Data Entity Permission node of that entity and check.

    Thanks,

    Girish S.
