ABAP Query?

Former Member — Wed, 31 Jan 2007 22:11:29 GMT

I want to know the use of a User Group used in ABAP Query.(SQ01)

I mean why do we categorize different reports on the basis of user groups?

I know its a very basic question but would really appreciate a reply.

Thanks

Hi,

The concept is similar to the Function group, wherein you group related function modules together.

Similarly, you can assign a group of users who will be executing this SQL Query. The query should not be open to all, as it contains critical data. Sometimes these need not be shared among all the users in the organization.

Does this answer your qtn.?

Hi,

Why we are catgorising the reports means the use of one report is basically

belongs to the one particular module like SD, MM like that.

Becoz the sales order report means that is useful for only sales relatede dept peoples only.

For that particular purpose only in any manufacturing industry they are desinging one menu path for the every particular module.

For example, ZSDQRY - For SD module the qry was designed by the IS PEOPLES. In this particular query all the sales related reports are available. Like that only every module we are desigining one query path.

Subhash,

Say client is having diff. groups .One group wants to run their groups queries which others can't run,vice versa.That time all relevant queries will move into one group and give the authorization for relevant users.

Pls. reward if useful.

Reports are categorized based on User Group in ABAP/4 Query, to give the transparent access to the reports, it is one of the reasons.

Users with similar kind of authorizations are assigned to one user group.

and the only the users of that group can execute the reports that are assigned to that group.

For example payslip of an employee(report) can only be visible to manager and that employee. these 2 persons are assigned to one usergroup. and only this user group is allowed to execute this report. none other can execute this report.

Hi,

In the user group u specify the users who are authorised to use the queries under that user group.

User groups determine the queries that a user is allowed to execute or maintain.
