Cell Comments in Planning

Data source types: Oracle Hyperion Planning, Oracle Planning and Budgeting Cloud

You can add one or more comments per data cell; each data cell can contain comments from multiple users. Depending on the permission level assigned to you by the administrator, you may be able to do any of the following in a data cell:

  • Add comments.

  • View the comments that you and other users have added.

  • Delete comments that you have entered. You cannot delete comments added by other users.

Cells that contain comments can be associated with a cell style (See Cell Styles).

To add comments to a data cell:

  1. Select one data cell or a range of data cells in an ad hoc grid.
  2. From the Planning or Planning Ad Hoc ribbon, select Cell Actions and then Comments.
  3. From Comments, click Add Comment button.
  4. If you selected a range of cells in step 1, you can either enter comments for one cell at a time or apply a comment to all selected cells.

    • To enter a comment for one cell, select the cell from the drop-down menu.

    • To enter a comment for all selected cells, select Apply to all selected cells.

  5. In the field at the right, enter a comment. If you want to format the comment, use HTML tags.
  6. Click Save button to save the comment.

    The comment is displayed in the list of comments to the left of the comment field. This list contains comments entered by all users.

  7. Click OK.
  8. Optional: To delete a comment, click Delete button. You can delete only the comments that you have entered.
