You can specify the default behavior for certain Essbase operations, such as opening objects in locked or unlocked mode. These settings are stored on Essbase Administration Server so that your preferences for certain behaviors are always the same no matter which computer you connect from.

From the menu bar, select Tools, and then Console options.
In the Options dialog box, select the Essbase tab.
Select the desired Essbase default options.
Click Apply to save the settings.
Click Close to close the dialog box.
