With "help" you imply you've tried some stuff yourself. Where did you get stuck?

thanks for the reply

ml81n has got following authorization objects

M_BEST_BSA

M_BEST_EKG

M_BEST_EKO

M_BEST_WRK

Scenario

when i select a service entry sheet and in the change mode I tried to change the status to block and reset block and vice verse ,but those who have the authorization for t-code ML81N they can do the same ,

now I want to restrict the block and reset block for specific users

I tries with the t-code ST01 to find the authorization objects,and which shows only the above mentioned objects

regards

George

Looking at these objects it does not apear as if there's a separate activity for block and reset block. Change mode is about all you've got.

My guess is that you'll need to look for a customer exit where you can add code with an additional authroization check.

Do you have the business process steps required to block and unblock purchase orders?

If you start with the process, you should be able to determine what authorizations are required.

Additionally, you can run an ST01 trace on the process to see what authorizations are used.

Hope this helps.

Hi George,

When you'll click on "lock button" in ML81N then NO authorization object is checked. So this is NOT possible to segregate user for with "Block" and "Reset block". However you can check with ABAPer on "User exit" as last option.
