Hi Deepika,

These buttons are generated in a java class called CreateOverview inside the FcPersInfo component inside the main ess~per DC. If you need to only hide the button and see that it is not available to any user, you can achieve this directly by doing a personalization on the ESS iView in the portal (pressing the Ctrl + right click of the mouse) and hide the buttons. See that you do this personalization using Admin rights so that it is applicable to all users. Also make sure you enable the checkbox saying the iView is not allowed to be personalized by end users.

Let me know if you need any further information as we've done this recently in one of the projects.

Thanks & Regards,

Hello Deepika,

Just now I have replicated your scenario.

It was working fine for me.

I made Edit button as invisible. And made this change as final (upper right corner check box..I guess u have also done the same).

Then applied this change.

Now I logged into R/3 PA30 and changed details of this user....

Then logged back to portal....and edit button was not there...

Please follow SAP note I pasted earlier...properly...

and try also making that checkbox checked for "Final:"

Hi Deepika,

The solution to hide the delete button is only temporary from the portal. Like you said, if you actually make changes for that user in the backend, the buttons come back.

One solution is to try and create all the different subtypes you might be dealing with family members, get back on to the portal and hide all the necessary buttons as said before. Delete the stuff from the backend and check the portal again and then add everything in the backend and check again. If I'm right, we tried this and it worked.

The second and permanent solution is to modify the createOverview() method in the OverviewHelper.java file as I said before. The buttons are not visible anywhere on the view as they are dynamically generated in this particular java file. This file exists in the standard used DC ess_{per. The family}per DC that you are working on should have this as a used DC. But it is advisable not to touch the main ess~per DC at all. So what we did was copied the OverviewHelper.java file into our DC and renamed it and made the necessary changes here. In the doModify method of your view, you will see that there is a call to the createOverview() method from this file. Replace it to call the createOverview method from the new file that you have copied.

We had to do a lot of changes here 'cuz the whole application stopped working once we got this file into the DC. But if you need a permanent solution, we saw this was the only way out.

Thanks & Regards,

Hi Saurabh

I am doing personalization by using Team Viewer.if i do the personalization by using Team viewer whether it will reflect or not.

And more over the path what i have mentioned in my previous mail is that correct to personalize the family members iview.

note :Please check with the child subtype this problem is coming for child subtype only were when the user enters new child in the table by using pa30 tcode .That time i am getting buttons visible on portal screen for that new child which is added recently in r/3

Can u please guide me.

Thanks & Regards

Hello Deepika...

What is happening is...

When a child is added a subgroupcontainer_1 is created, then we disable Edit button. But when a second child is added a subgroupcontainer_2 is created and the Edit button is enable.

Now, when you login to portal....you will find 2 child records...

one 1st record...i guess you must not be able to find edit button for this child...

but on second record...you will get a edit button.....

Look to hide edit button all together.....in this case you will have to edit java code in web dynpro............

Or there could be a workaround.....(this is a very wild guess....but atleast give it a try...as nothing else seems to work...rite..)

Now, I havnt, tested on what I am about to write...but I somehow feel that it should work....

I will surely test it when I will be in office after this weakend....

Login with different user that has admin irights..

and add 10 childs ....or more or less (if SAP supports less childs)...

now under personalization....hide edit button for all childs......as you have been doing before....

now test this application for any other user.....

and believe that he/she will not have more than 10 children.....

keep adding childs from r/3 and moniter...if edit button is getting displayed or not for every child....

however it willl get displayed for 11th child......

If it works.....then observe worse case scenario for country that you are implementing......

and add as many child....and hide them all from personalization..............

=====================================================

If above solution does not work....then

try under SPRO Tcode.....

Service-Specific Settings->Define Active Subtypes and Application Case

try to find out some combination there.......

Hello Deepti...

I have tested the scenario that I suggested you....

And it is working for me...

You need to add as many child as possible...and then from admin rights(ofcoarse same user) make all of edit button for them invisible.....make them final also..

now for every new user...this edit button will not appear until he reaches the limit... (of maximum childs you added with your test user )....so for safe side add lot of child with your test user...

But this is a workaround only....

proper way of doing it is through java code level...as Vaishnavi suggested you earlier........

Hi Saurabh

ya the issue is done by the below approach wat you suggested me thank you very much for your response..

Thanks & Regards

Deepika.M

[Former Member · Accepted solution]

But deepika be very careful.....if you are following this approach....

Point to remember is...

For all InfoSubTypes (Child, Sporse, Guardian, father, mother etc...) Edit button will not be displayed until it reaches the limit you decided while hiding them.....

If an employee adds a wife...then that too would not conatin an edit button.....

Edit button that you are hiding using this approach is not specific to Child Infosubtype....

For..eg. You added 10 child with your admin user id and hide them with personalization....

Now user adds 3 child and 1 wife....

Now total Edit hide count reaches 4...

So check your requirement...if they want edit button to be hidden for all InfoSubTypes....then this approach could be fine.....

otherwise....do it through code level modification......

Now in preview application....place your mouse on button that you want to hide....

Right click it while pressing control key on keyboard (Ctrl + Right Click)

See if this works for your scenario.....test it properly once done....trying different user Ids....
