I'm using Maximo 7.5

I try to enable/disable section for specific security group. So i created this expression :

1 = (select 1 from GROUPUSER where USERID = :&PERSONID& and groupname in ( 'GR_1', 'GR_2'))

My expression is associated with a sigoption and my sigoption is associated to the section. My sigoption has the rigth on my application. 

When true --> inputmode = default
When false --> inputmode = readonly

But it doesn't work.

Is it right to use that SQL expression to do this? Or should I create a specific class to do this?

There are many ways to accomplish the same goal in Maximo.

I know you can disable modules, tabs and or fields, but I am not sure about sections.

This post discusses some of the different ways to restrict what is visible in Maximo by using the Conditional UI:

One reason this might not work: never use the "default" input mode! If you want the default behaviour in Maximo, simply leave the inputmode empty - the "default" input mode works in some unexpected ways (doesn't let you save the record).

You could actually just create an "always true" condition and assign it to the specific security group. Set the section to readonly, but set the "true" condition of the security group to empty.
