Urgent: How to hide subject area from select subject area list altogether

Summary:

Business does not want to see the extensive big list which the organization did not subscribe for, to be available in the OTBI subject area list as in case of scrolling through the list it makes a cumbersome job. Is there a way to hide it for all custom roles?

The manage privileges section could only restrict what one sees inside the subject area, however we want to hide the subject area from the select subject area list altogether.

    Hi,

    Yes you can do that. Whether a subject area is included in the list of values on create analysis is managed by role. As bi administrator go to page manage privileges /analytics/saw.dll?PrivilegeAdmin. Near the bottom are the roles that can select a subject area in the list of subject areas privilege "Access with Answers". By default out of the box most subject areas are in the list if you are BI Author Role. Update to bi administrator or something if you want to hide the subject area in the list from bi authors. NOTE This role is not the same role as the role that can issue sql using that subject area without a database connection error which is controlled by your transaction anaylsis duty roles.
