How to restrict Global default layout setting by users? Authorization

[Former Member]

Hi Friends,

Currently users are able to set their own report layout as the global default layout.

can we provide solution on how to prevent users from setting default layout for reports.

Users should be restricted to set user specific report layout only.

Is there any specific role/profile meant to restric this?

Thanks,

Hi Simha,

I think if you check the object S_ALV_LAYO (ACTVT=23) you will find the possibility not to allow global layout settings.

Further information can be found in SAP notes #409190 and #601803.

Check the notes posted by Bernhard.

It's basically changing authorization object S_ALV_LAYO to F_IT_ALV.

S_ALV_LAYO = global access

F_IT_ALV = user or local access

Hi Bernhard,

Currently the users have Activity = 23 and with this they will be able to create and change the global layout.

Can you pls help me out on how to restrict users creating and making layout default.

Hi Simha,

Just maitain the authorization object value for S_ALV_LAYO ACTVT=NUll (Empty).Users will not be able to change global layout settings.
