How to add specific validation

[uzair_1234]

Hi all,

I have a validation requirement. I have created a Z Table. The IDs maintained in the Z Table should not have the authorization to make changes in the "Requirement Quantity" and also should not be able to delete any line item and if they do they should get the error message "You are not authorized to make any changes" Else those IDs can do other changes. Please guide me on this.

You can create an authorization object with the fields that you want to restrict access to ¹. Then you can assign this authorization object to the Z table in customizing ².

You can also use table events to check if the user has the required authorization before allowing them to make changes. You can use the authorization group in the table maintenance generator to restrict access ³.

I hope this helps. Let me know if you have any other questions.

Can you clarify the following points

• The customer z-table is basically a list of users, I suppose maintained by SM30.
• In which kind of program do you want to check this authorization, a standard one, a customer one or another generated maintenance dialog on another table or cluster of tables?

NB: You should use the authorization concept to handle this kind of requirement (create an authorization object, use AUTHORITY-CHECK statement in the program, manage the user authorization roles. Not create another customer table?

It is an enhancement COR1 where i want to make the changes

Actually it's an enhancement COR1 where i want to add the code for the above requirement. Please guide for the same.

AFAIK, COR1 is a transaction not an Enhancement?

For this transaction, you could look at

• Enhancements (SMOD/CMOD) starting with PPCO00* or CONFPP*
• BAdIs such as WORKORDER_UPDATE, CONFIRM and the like

Nevertheless you should use the authorization concept and not a customer table, this is IMHO bad design.
