Restrict Material Master View

Former Member — Mon, 21 May 2007 18:34:34 GMT

All,

I have a role to view material master data which contains tcodes MM03 / MM04. I would like to prevent the users from viewing Accounting & Costing views.

Using object M_MATE_STA and the appropriate values in the STATM field this has worked correctly for MM03. However, via transaction MM04, change documents can be viewed for accounting and costing despite the restrictions in M_MATE_STA - I would like to prevent this.

Running system trace (ST01) I have found MM04 checks for M_MATE_STA, but never looks at the specific values in the field STATM.

Has anyone else had this problem? If so what possible solutions have you considered?

Thanks!

hi,

you can create authorization object based on attribute, and include that authorization object in role.
