Can someone explain me the Parameter EFB

[miguelfdzs]

I am starting with SAP and I have a bit of struggle with understanding exactly how EFB works. I know that this is for giving authorizations or restrictions to users when handling purchasing documents but I do not understand completely what all the fields are or how to start customizing these.

For instance there are the general parameters like:

Display conditions, Enter conditions, W/o Material and then on the right side Fieldselection. I do not understand what this combination generates.

And I will appreciate some guidance as well with the possible reference objects. 

Thank you very much for all the people creating such a good learning community!

Hello @miguelfdzs 

First, you need to customize authorizations for buyers in the configuration path Materials Management -> Purchasing -> Authorization Management -> Define Function Authorizations for Buyers -> Function Authorizations: Purchase Order:

The settings of an authorization are quite self-evident. There is also F1 help for each field.

Each authorization is given a 2 chars code. This code is then assigned to a user in the SU01 transaction (tab "Parameters") with the parameter id EFB.
