SPAD - Reset Cache, Reactivate, Check Connection - Authorisation Control

[Former Member]

Dear Experts,

I have been trying to implement authorisation control to grant only the following functions in SPAD,

- Reset cache

- Reactivate

- Check Connection

no luck for a long time now.

End users are supposed to be able to perform the above functions without the other admin functions.

Any advice anyone ? Is this even possible ?

Many thanks.

If you take a look at it with a developer to see how the screens are built (depending on authorizations) and the function codes selected perform the checks, then you will see what your options are.

Have you considered choosing a different transaction or developing one of your own?

Never-the-less, if there are system administration checks in these three functions (SAP "owns" the correctness of the checks) then they are probably in the right place.

The modification of the screens and visibility of function codes is "just" a user friendliness aspect of the programming.

Cheers,

why would you grant 'reset cache' and 'reactivate' to an end-user? what's wrong with your printer-spool-setup (host-spool-setup) that end-users have to reactivate printers?

SPAD belongs in the hand of Basis-people, IMHO. when end-users are forced to care for technical settings in spooling, there is something dreadfully wrong ...

for some reasons, the barcode printers frequently require the use of reset cache and reactivate. Since it is frequent, we would like the users to be able to do it themselves.
