Most Basis Technologies’ customers utilise around 20-30% of the total available functionality of ActiveControl.
In most cases, there are Features that are never used as part of the customer’s workflow and processes within ActiveControl, but are still seen by users, inevitably sometimes leading to avoidable questions / confusion. Common examples of these include the Merge and Transport of Copies functions that are not relevant for all SAP customers, and also some of the individual ActiveControl screens such as the [Additional Data] screen on the Business Task, or the [Planning Status] dropdown field on the Business Task.
The ActiveControl Web Platform introduces a new Feature Deactivation screen via which Administrators can globally hide some of the App Tiles / Screens / Tabs and Buttons that are not used within their own ActiveControl implementation and processes.
As of ActiveControl Web Platform 9.00, the following capabilities can be deactivated (hidden):

- Show RAG Information – DevEnforcer
- Show RAG Information – Conflict Analysis
- Show RAG Information – Aged Transport
