Is it possible to keep a keyfigure editable only for a certain period of time horizon?

My exact requirement is to keep a keyfigure editable in only one month/period in the past. Is there way of achieving this or is this functionality planned to be included in any of the upcoming releases?

Regards,

Hello Naveen,

in addition to Ivan's answer, you could check if the key figure editability based on the S&OP process status could help you. e.g. specific key figures would only be editable when the S&OP process step is set to in process. After that they would be non-editable again.

This can be a workaround in some cases.

You would need small customization for this as follows:

1) Create keyfigure A editable in the past

2) Create two attribute as keyfigure, say keyfigure B and keyfigure C which will indicate start date and end date of the locked period

3) Create another stored keyfigure D, which through HCI-DS will control the value of it to be 0 within start date and end date of the locked period and 1 outside the period or after the end date in past horizon

4) In keyfigure calculation for keyfigure A at request level make it equal to keyfigure A * keyfigureD (multiplication)

Hi Naveen,

Right now I don't see any way of accomplish this on the product, so you may take a look on the IBP Roadmap via below link and also can check if anyone has already suggest it on the official IBP Influence Channel:
