Hide Security Group options in sending notifications of report outputs

Hi,

We see that in PPM 24.2, there is an option to send email notifications to security groups when the report is submitted. We want to hide that feature from showing up to the end users. Can you tell us a way to hide that field all together?

Thanks,

Kaushik

    Hi Kaushik,

    Unfortunately no option to hide this new feature was made available when it was introduced. We'll consider making it configurable in a future release, but considering that you're on PPM 24.2 (congratulations on the upgrade!), you can make use of the new custom CSS editor in the Admin Console to easily hide the option to pick Security Groups in the UI: 

    - Go to Admin Console, pick "Administration Task => Theme Customization"

    - In the "CSS Editor" window, enter the following CSS:

    #DIV_EC_REPORT_SUBMISSION_SCHEDULED_TASK > table:nth-child(2) > tbody > tr:nth-child(3) , #DIV_EC_REPORT_SUBMISSION_SCHEDULED_TASK > table:nth-child(2) > tbody > tr:nth-child(2) > td:nth-child(3) {
      display:none;
    }

    Click the "Save" button, and that's it! Change will take effect immediately on your whole PPM cluster, no need to restart PPM or deploy any custom JSP file. Also, this change will persist through PPM upgrades:

    Please test and let me know if that's working as expected.

    And please be careful not to abuse these newly-available custom CSS superpowers to wildly customize all your PPM screens - this custom CSS will apply to all the PPM screens, and if the CSS selectors are not specific enough, you might easily end up with some unintended and unfortunate side-effect on other PPM screens.
