Hi,

we are running 4.7 Enterprise.

I would like to add an additional auth. object to transaction code ME21N in order to restrict purchase order entry by material type.

Ideally I would like that the M_MATE_MAR (Material Master: Material Types) auth. object is checked since I want to restrict certain users by material type = HAWA.

Would that be possible?

If yes, how?

Thanks!

Yes,

Go to PFCG>Authorizations>Change Authorization Data>Edit>Insert

Authorizations-->Manual Input.

Hi Armin

Authorizationscheck are implementd directly in the source code - this means that often, it is not possible, using standard, to add an extra authorization check.

If the M_MATE_MAR is already implemented, you can inset it manually, but if isn't you need to look for an alternative, or perhaps an user exit in which you implement it your self.

You can find a list here http://arthur_ong.tripod.com/xab018.htm.

Hi,

I'm not really familiar with the user exits. Isn't there an easier way by forcing the M_MATE_MAR auth object to be "check/maintain" instead of just "check" in su24.

How would I go about that?

If that's not possible, how would I go about with the user exits? Could someone point me to a good site or step by step guide?

Thanks in advance,

Armin

Sorry Armin

If the check isn't implemented in the code beneath ME21N, you need to implement it, using a user exit, or enhancement . You need to hook up with a ABAP developer.
