Security for CREATE_TEXT

[Former Member]

Hello, I'm using the function Create_text to update text on the delivery header.  I have an interactive ALV that allows the user to select a button to add a certain text.  The text is updating even with users that do not have security to VL02n.  How do I verify the user has VL02N before I allow them to change header text?

Thanks

Use authority-check statement to first check if user has authorization for VL02n before calling "CREATE_TEXT" function in code. Do as follows:

AUTHORITY-CHECK OBJECT 'S_TCODE'

          ID 'TCD' FIELD 'VL02N'.

if sy-subrc = 0.

   *call the create_text fm here.

ENDIF.

Thanks.  So I guess that I'll need to add Auth Checks any time I use create_text or save_text
