BAPI_MATERIAL_SAVEDATA and authorization

Former Member — Tue, 25 Nov 2008 19:52:43 GMT

People,

I would like to use BAPI_MATERIAL_SAVEDATA to simulate MM01 and MM02 in my Z program.

My question is:

The users that will run my program have authorization for only some Plants and Material Types. If they try to create a material with a Material Type that it is not allowed, it receives an error message.

Using my Z program, this BAPI will get the same error messages?

Thanks!

yes, 'cause the BAPI should do the same check as the transactions.

If you have RFC from other system then some common userID will be used & authorization of that user ID will be used.

You can create an Authorization object for Plant and material type and call the ABAP statement

AUTHORITY-CHECK in your program to check the authorization. now if the user has the authorization then you can alow him/her to create the material.

Do you know if BAPI_MATERIAL_SAVEDATA calls the exit EXIT_SAPLMGMU_001 ?

Thanks!
