Authorization issue : Inbound Invoice IDoc Process

[Former Member]

Hi All,

I am working on 4.6C Environment, we are facing a strange issue with authorization for Inbound Invoice IDoc processing.

The issue is that a user who is not authorized for Financial transaction say (MIR* TCodes) and he uses BD87 transaction to process Inbound Invoice IDOcs and now the system is able to process the Invoice IDocs - But what was expected was a error like "No Authorization for Invoice creation"

The function module used to process the Invoice IDoc is "IDOC_INPUT_INVOIC_MRM" it look like the function module does not check the authorization at that right point.

Could you all please help me finding a solution.

Hi,

Can you check the user name it is showing on the successfully posted IDoc(when you double click on status 53..under logging tab you can see user name)? Is it the same as the user processing BD87.

Thanks,
