Usually there’s no need to set the DISPLAYONLY flag to 1 if the menu barname is like INQ% or REPORT% or RPT%. Running a quick update statement to set DISPLAYONLY back to 0 for those rows in PSAUTHITEM will get you close.

You’re right. Unfortunately I’m not sure there is a way to resolve this without customisation.

I think there is a page field property called Enable When Display Only or something similar that you could trun on to resolve this. But, this goes as a customization

Hyperlinks on pages where you need to drill down sometimes are inactive in view only depending on the setting in app designer. I find this on pages where the concept of the page was to view details only and not do data entry. How do you handle this? I have found that we need to go in and remove the view only access for these pages.
