Problem adding fields/tables in MDM Console

Former Member

Hi Experts,

We have recently installed the MDM Console, along with the Data Manager, Import Manager and Syndicator.

The problem we are having is the option to ADD/DELETE FIELD and ADD/DELETE TABLE in the Console is grayed out. We have tried adding users and assigning the standard roles but that does not work either.

If anyone has had any experience with this or knows what the problem might be, your assistance will be highly appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

Hello Keit,

In addition to Varun, Please check, Have you unloaded the repository or not?

Normally you can create users and roles evenif the repository is loaded but to add fields or tables, Just unload the repository and then you can add fields and tables in the repository (Add field and Add table options will be enable).

I hope this will solve your problem.

TNR,

Hi guys,

Thanks a lot for the response.

I did unload the repository and then the option to ADD FIELDS/TABLES got activated.

Thanks so much for your assistance. Points will be awarded.

Hi Keitumetse,

If your problem does not resolve by the above two methods,then check the for version mismatch if any.

Check your Server version by selecting the MDM server in Console and checking its version and build deatils in the right hand pane.

Simillarly you can check the Gui version details by selecting Help from the menu bar and then the about console details.

Your Sever and Guis version must match with the Version and service pack number the build can slightly differ.

Also just try repair your repository if any errors exists by using the context menu by right clicking on the Repository and selecting Check/Repair option.

Hope It Helped

Thanks & Regards

Hi Keit,

Please check, if may be by mistake you have clicked on the Read-only button in MDM Console. You will find this button on top left side of Console (you will see a Lock Symbol over there). Please see that if it is selected then please de-select it. That will make the Console editable.

If that is not the case, then please check the roles assigned to the user by which you are logged in to the repository. Try to login using Admin User or any other user with Admin roles and then try to create any field or table in your MDM repository.

Regards,

Varun
