# Disable Input On Cells

**Workview-only.** Marks the cells associated with the working list as read-only. Users can't enter or modify values in these cells, even if the underlying cube cell would normally accept input.

Every leaf-level cell in a Workview is editable by default - this instruction is how you carve out exceptions for elements that shouldn't be, without changing the cube's own input rules.

#### Example

```
1. Element: Net Profit
2. Disable Input On Cells
```

A planning template where every line item is user-editable, except the `Net Profit` total row, which should only ever be calculated - not typed over.
