How to change the severity of a message type at OB28 FI validations

[former_member222946]

Hi everybody,

On transaction OB28 (also GGB0), we have set one FI validation that issues warning message ZZ 001 - Wrong parameter &BSEG-HKONT&. But sometimes we would need to manage the message type so, for certain users, the system issued an ERROR message, instead of a warning.

We have tried customizing the message at tables T100C and T100S but, unfortunately, these don't apply to FI validations.

Could somebody advise? Thanks in advance.

Regards,

It's either error or warning per validation step. Maybe you can introduce a second validation step with the same check and message number, but a different prerequisite and message type.

Try not to hard code user names though in the prerequisite rule, maybe use sets containing the values, or (even better) check authorizations inside a user exit.

Hi Thomas,

You're right we can do it that way: we also thought it could be an option.

And sure it will be our choice if there is no other way to get it. But we would like to find another workaround for us to be able to manage this same issue in future validations, probably hundreds of, that couldn't mean two hundreds.

Thanks a lot.
