Hello,

Use the authority-check command.


PARAMETERS carr TYPE spfli-carrid. 

AT SELECTION-SCREEN. 
  AUTHORITY-CHECK OBJECT 'S_CARRID' 
    ID 'CARRID' FIELD carr 
    ID 'ACTVT'  FIELD '03'. 

  IF sy-subrc <> 0. 
    MESSAGE 'No authorization' TYPE 'E'. 
  ENDIF.

If the user has the authority object associated to his profile, the resul of sy-subrc will be 0.

Regards.

Create the transaction in SE93 as a dialog transaction for that module pool program / screen.

To start the program, the (normal) user would need the authority for that transaction (object S_TCODE).

I think if you search for "transaction to start a module pool program" then you would probably also have found some hits....

BTW: If you are coding an authority-check statement into your program (as mentioned by David) for object S_TCODE (as mentioned by me - at transaction start), I recommend that you do this by calling function module 'AUTHORITY_CHECK_TCODE' as you might want more than 1 transaction to be able to use this program, but no other.
