Before performing application-wide updates and maintenance operations, you may want to clear an application of user activity. Within applications for which you have Application Manager permissions, you can clear various types of activity.
For information about user activity settings, see Application Properties—General Tab.
To temporarily clear applications of user activity:
From Enterprise View or a custom view, select an application.
Right-click, and select Edit properties.
In the Application Properties window, select the General tab.
Expand the Security node.
Clear one or more of the Allow options.
For information about setting persistence, see “Setting General Application Connection Options” in the Oracle Essbase Database Administrator's Guide.
Click Apply.
