Table Maintenance without SM30 access

[Former Member]

Hello,

We have a requirement to create a custom maintenance view/screens for custom tables, I know we could use VIEW_MAINTENANCE Function modules, however users don't have SM30 access in PRD.

Suggestions please?

Thanks.

Are you sure you need permission? we proceed this way many times when users have no autorization to SM30, and it is working fine.

Another way is create a report which call the FM VIEW_MAINTENANCE_CALL

  exporting

              action                       = 'U'

              view_name                    = p_view  "maint.View

Regards!!

Hi,

You don't need SM30 access, you can create a tcode for each view maintenance.

Can you give more details please?

I am creating a custom table and generate the table maintenance (with recording routine as 'no, or user recording routine'.

When I create a tcode via SE93 (Transaction with parameters (parameter transaction)), in the default values section what should be the transaction??

Thanks much in advance.

Hi Chatterjee,

You can create a transantion for this table on SE93 calling sm 30. Then you could give acces to the users for this transaction:

Yes, it can be done this way, but this still needs SM30 in the background. Just exploring other options to achieve the same.

Hi,

Authorization can be controlled at 2 levels.

1. Access to the t-code directly.

2. Access to a t-code when it is called from some other program/t-code.

Solution mentioned by Carla works fine without having access to SM30. Please check with your BASIS folks to get correct access.

Thanks,

Vinod.

You are right Carla, parameter transaction doesn't require SM30 access. Somehow I assumed it requires SM30.

Thank you!
