authorization object for purchasing

Former Member — Wed, 10 Oct 2007 12:20:42 GMT

Hi Sap gurus,

Can someone tell me please how I can find suitable authority check object for purchasing? I created report for purchase orders history and now i would like to implement also authority check. I would like to check authorizations for purchasing groups, cost centers, orders types...

Do you have any example? Where to put this authority check into the program?

Thanks in advance, points granted,

Saso

Hi Saso,

You can list the authorisation objects, grouped by application area in transaction SU21.

Generally put the checks as early in the processing as possible, you don't want a report to run for five minutes, extracting data for the user to then be told they don't have authorisation to see it.

Regards,

Nick
