Variables used as values for Security fields.

Former Member — Tue, 04 Aug 2009 20:59:08 GMT

Gurus,

Since we are all friends, let me show my ignorance.

There are variables that con be used instead of actual values in security fields, $USER being one of them.

We use $USER as the value for field BTCUNAME for object S_BTCH_NAM, to indicate that the user ID of the person logged in, is the value to be used.

Are there any more?

If so, where can I find information about them?

This would be for an ERP system, not BI.

Thanks

Juan

We are all in the same boat

This is not correct. Please see [SAP Note 101146|https://service.sap.com/sap/support/notes/101146]

> Are there any more?

Plenty..see [SAP Note 119147|https://service.sap.com/sap/support/notes/119147] for a tricky example.

> If so, where can I find information about them?

[SAP Note 323817|https://service.sap.com/sap/support/notes/323817] and the last paragraph of [SAP Note 410993|https://service.sap.com/sap/support/notes/410993].
