Security in Match Codes

Former Member — Wed, 05 Sep 2007 00:02:57 GMT

Dear all,

Is there a way to restrict values in standar match codes? I want some users to be not allowed to see some values.

Any help on this topic will be really appreciated and rewarded

Thanks in advance

Hi,

Do you mean that " Match code = Search help in Se11 ".

if that you must create your own Search help and specify which fields to be displayed or not using transaction Se11

Thanks,

Yes I meant search helps, but the ones I want to restrict are standar ones, thats my problem.

Thanks

Hi Federico,

The AUTHORITY-CHECK checks whether a user has the appropriate authorization to execute a particular activity.

AUTHORITY – CHECK OBJECT <object name>

ID <name1> FIELD <f1>

ID <name2> FIELD <f2>

…

IF SY-SUBRC NE 0.

For Matchcode (which is now called Search help) go to the link

http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04s/helpdata/en/c9/83eb02be4c11d1950200a0c929b3c3/content.htm

http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04s/helpdata/en/cf/21ee93446011d189700000e8322d00/content.htm

If it is in a custom program you can do this check in the event AT SELECTION-SCREEN ON VALUE-REQUEST.

Reward points if this helps.

Thanks a lot for your help Lijo, the problem with my search help is that it is standar, so I cant add any code there, may be with the authority-check I could get it...

The search field i want to restrict is in trx PT90, field employee number (pernr), so some users just cant view & select employees from 1 to 100 and the rest from 101 to the last one...

Hope my question is clear enough

Dear Federico,

I think we should try with Search Help Exits. Please have a look at the following.

http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/cf/21ee52446011d189700000e8322d00/frameset.htm

I think our solution is somewhere near

Search Help exit:- HRMC_PREM_EXIT_A

*Reward if useful
